Sink or Swim Songtext
My mind, my mind, my mind
My mind, my mind
Oh, baby, won′t you let me in?
My mind is saying, "Sink or swim"
So much water, not a drop to drink
And my heart is saying, "Let's begin"
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
Stop crying ′bout the state of things
Don't always have to be so deep
Survivors on a sinking ship
Let's stay together, not give in
Let′s play together, start again
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing) oh
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink–)
My dealer, dealer picks up the phone
He says, "God, won′t everybody leave me alone?"
He said, "Am I the shelter to weather your storm, mmh?"
"Or am I the rhythm you jingle-jangle your bones to?"
He said
"There's things I wanna do, but the world ain′t fair" (la-di-da-di-da)
"There's things I must do, but I don′t really care" (la-di-da-di-da)
"There's things I wanna do, but life ain′t fair" (la-di-da-di-da)
(Sink or swim or do nothing)
(Sink or swim or do nothing)
You either sink or swim or do nothing
You either sink or swim or do nothing
You either sink or swim or do nothing
You either sink or swim or do nothing
You either sink or swim or do nothing
You either sink or swim or do nothing
Oh-wee, baby, won't you let me in? (You either sink or swim or do nothing)
My, my mind is saying, "Sink or swim" (you either sink or swim or do nothing)
So much water, not a drop to drink (you either sink or swim or do nothing)
And my heart is saying, yeah (you either sink or swim or do nothing)
You either sink or swim or do nothing
You either sink or swim or do nothing
You either sink or swim or do nothing
You either sink or swim or do nothing
My mind, my mind
Oh, baby, won′t you let me in?
My mind is saying, "Sink or swim"
So much water, not a drop to drink
And my heart is saying, "Let's begin"
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
Stop crying ′bout the state of things
Don't always have to be so deep
Survivors on a sinking ship
Let's stay together, not give in
Let′s play together, start again
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing) oh
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink or swim or do nothing)
(You either sink–)
