meanwhile downstairs
C
i'm setting up shop
G
a little too proud
Em
to let the matter drop

and i can hear you up there,
isn't it romantic?
you're huffing and puffing rearranging
deck chairs on the titanic

D
and i reach for a glass
Em
of cool water drawn
G-A D
from the rivers of babylon.

meanwhile outside,
the stars have come out.
and the humid summer air
pulls at the ring in my snout.

and you stand at your window looking down,
and i spread wide my arms.
jump if you want to jump, jump if you want to.
the water's warm.

i know.
i know 'cause i've been swimming.
blindly along through the rivers of babylon.
