The Divine Comedy - Tailspin lyrics
[The Divine Comedy - Tailspin lyrics]
Tailspin, is the world gonna win?
Is the ocean gonna open up and let us in?
Hard luck, your policies suck
Your rhetoric will save your face
But not your skin
This crime is hard to define
So watch the leaves turn brown
For the last time
Too late, you've sealed our fate
No u turns, no emergency debate
But wait i hate unhappy endings
And there doesn't have to be one
Tailspin, the airs getting thin
The oceans getting sick of all
The crap you're pumping in
Test ban, get a real good tan
Your rhetoric'll save your face but
Not your cancerous skin- deep, life is cheap
The forests pine and the willow's weep
Check mate, you've sealed our fate
The world is way past it's sell-by date
But wait i hate unhappy endings
And there doesn't have to be one
Tailspin, is the world gonna win?
Tailspin, from the outside looking in
Tailspin, I repent my sins
But when I get to heaven will he let me in?
Tailspin, save our skins save our skins
But wait i hate unhappy endings
And there doesn't have to be one
The message we are sending
Is a very real one
The world we are defending
Could be a very green one
We all hate unhappy endings
And there doesn't have to be one
There doesn't have to be one
There doesn't have to be a tailspin
Is the ocean gonna open up and let us in?
Hard luck, your policies suck
Your rhetoric will save your face
But not your skin
This crime is hard to define
So watch the leaves turn brown
For the last time
Too late, you've sealed our fate
No u turns, no emergency debate
But wait i hate unhappy endings
And there doesn't have to be one
Tailspin, the airs getting thin
The oceans getting sick of all
The crap you're pumping in
Test ban, get a real good tan
Your rhetoric'll save your face but
Not your cancerous skin- deep, life is cheap
The forests pine and the willow's weep
Check mate, you've sealed our fate
The world is way past it's sell-by date
But wait i hate unhappy endings
And there doesn't have to be one
Tailspin, is the world gonna win?
Tailspin, from the outside looking in
Tailspin, I repent my sins
But when I get to heaven will he let me in?
Tailspin, save our skins save our skins
But wait i hate unhappy endings
And there doesn't have to be one
The message we are sending
Is a very real one
The world we are defending
Could be a very green one
We all hate unhappy endings
And there doesn't have to be one
There doesn't have to be one
There doesn't have to be a tailspin
