The English Beat - Drowning lyrics

rate me

Compromise around the corner

can you hear the accountants call?

could you refuse another dollar?

could you stop yourself from falling?

so in between the sleepless nights

you dream that you are winning fights

but then it happens, dreadful thing

a wave appears too big to swim

you're drowning, you're drowning.

buy a beach before next summer?

how do you feel in the morning?

if the light's an awful bother

i could always close the curtains.

just close your eyes and count to ten

see if you still remember when

your life seemed easy, you had friends

but that was different than that was then

you're drowning, you're drowning

round and round and round

you're drowning

in a frenzy now

you're drowning

you want fe go in a de ocean, a so me say

i saw you drowning in slow motion, and now me learn

far too late to make a commotion

too late for you to show easy motion

a say you go down to the bottom

say you can't reach the top

get stuck on the bottom

say you can't reach the top

two days later say they find you 'pon the rocks

say ha ha ha ha ha bad luck!

eh? so ...

tell yourself until you're certain

can you hear the accountants call?

you'll buy a beach before next summer

swim away and leave it all.

so underwater deaf and blind

under such pressures you might find

a secret right before the end

that makes you want to breathe again

you're drowning, you're drowning

round and round and round

you're drowning

inner frenzy now you're drowning

round and round and round and round

you're drowning, drowning

you said you're unhappy

and you've taken all these tablets

just turn on the television
