Verse 1:
                                        
I'll sink Manhattan,     right under the sea
                                                    
I'll find the sweetest spot to watch as it goes away
                                         
You were so happy with the things that you said
                                                    
Like "he's my lower half" you laughed, but you're gonna cry


Chorus:
                                                  
A river of tiny tears flow from your crocodile eyes
                                                
Too late to apologize, I say, as flood waters rise


Verse 2: 
I'll sink Manhattan, I'll sacrifice friends  
I think they'd understand my plan - I'll never be sure  
I've got a message, so before I get through 
I'll find your answering machine and I'll sink it first


Chorus:   
Burn your forget-me-nots - admit that true love can die
No I won't apologize my love just kiss me goodbye
