It's like seeing a car crash from inside the car

The driver's got his head craned back he's telling you a joke

You see the bus on collision course

You point your arm and turn your head and wait for the impact

This is the feeling we learn to live with in North America

The morning headlines always accompanied with sweat and nausea

Every week another puzzle piece gets permanently glued into place



We see the iceberg from 15 miles away

The captain orders the ship to "stay the course"

"Full speed ahead" shouts the accurst

The next thing we heard was, "Richard women and children first"

The ship is listing, the captain's placing blame on the iceberg

"That berg attacked us, I am declaring war on the Arctic"

Who could ever have predicted the greatest ship could so easily sink (duh)



Lifeboats are useless without rescue

The only ships show up for salvage

When setting sail on the St. Louis

We all knew what consequences could be

With the crew we had at the controls

There's no harbor age for the USA-holes

I doubt there's a benign God to save our souls

Cuz no one else is gonna save the USA-holes
