We're an oyster cracker
on the stew
And the honey in the tea
We're the sugar cubes
One lump or two
in the black coffee
The golden crust
on an apple pie
That shines in the sun
at noon
We're a wheel of cheese
high in the sky
But we're gonna be
sinkin' soon
In a boat that's built
of sticks and hay
We drifted from the shore
With a captain
who's too proud to say
that he dropped the oar
And a tiny hole
has sprung a leak
in this cheap pontoon
Now the hull has started
growin' weak
And we're gonna be
sinkin' soon
We're gonna be
sinkin' soon
We're gonna be
sinkin' soon
Everybody hold your breath
'Cause we're gonna be
sinkin' soon
We're gonna be
sinkin' soon
We're gonna be
sinkin' soon
Everybody hold your breath
And down and down we go
Like the oyster cracker
on the stew
The honey in the tea
The sugar cubes
One lump or two
No thank you none for me
We're the golden crust
on an apple pie
That shines in the sun
at noon
Like the wheel of cheese
high in the sky
Well we're gonna be
sinkin' soon
