Letra da Música Sinking Ships de Milburn

I don’t want to talk to you and you don’t want to talk to me
So I'll shut my eyes and think of England while I speak
You don’t want my photograph and I don’t want to know your name

You say we look the same like everybody else
Maybe that’s 'cos we like to keep ourselves to ourselves
But you want something different, you want something false
You want your opinion to always be involved
That won't last at all, no that’s not natural

If you should change your colours
or you should change your mind
I won't go holding grudges
I let sleeping dogs lie


Oh how you'd love it if we had disappeared along the horizon,
Going down like sinking ships in the nighttime,
But no one came to save our souls,
No one came to fix the holes,
But we made it back to land,
So if you’ve backed the underdog,
You may collect your winnings,


If you could see in colours
If you should change your mind,
I won't go holding grudges,
I let sleeping dogs lie

Oh but by the same token,
I cannot forget,
How you hanged your own quarter,
Those you don’t respect,
So I will not pretend,
You and i want to be friends,
'cos we both know that that would be a lie.
