Shipwreck Waiting to Happen

It might seem like you're floating through life like a leaf
But just below the surface there's a dangerous reef

Some say you've sailed too hard for too long
You're body's all worn out
And some say you'll probably live forever
But to me there ain't no doubt, that

You're a shipwreck waiting to happen
With teakwood that's starting to leak
You're a shipwreck waiting to happen
Too young to look like an antique
You're a shipwreck waiting to happen
The skipper who's always drunk
You're a shipwreck waiting to happen
Get repairs before you get sunk

Some folks say you're fading with time
Your mind ain't what it used to be
But you're sailing off without a care in the world
On a collision course with destiny, can't you see

You're a shipwreck waiting to happen
With teakwood that's starting to leak
You're a shipwreck waiting to happen
Too young to look like an antique
You're a shipwreck waiting to happen
The skipper who's always drunk
You're a shipwreck waiting to happen
Get repairs before you get sunk

Well there's a lot of ways you can live your life
You can eat right and exercise
Or live a devil-may-care life of sin
And throw caution to the wind

Some say deep down there's treasure within
It might be grim but you could salvage your soul
If you don't tack soon it may be too late
You're headed straight for a rocky shoal, watch out 'cause

You're a shipwreck waiting to happen
With teakwood that's starting to leak
You're a shipwreck waiting to happen
Too young to look like an antique
You're a shipwreck waiting to happen
The skipper who's always drunk
You're a shipwreck waiting to happen
Get repairs before you get sunk
