Venice Is Sinking Words and Music by Bruce Garnitz ©2009
Five o' Clock I parked my car
And wandered toward the Pier
Thought I'd have a drink or two
Before the place got weird
Harry Parry skates on by
Turban taunts the sky... (singin')

Venice is Sinking
And no one knows why
Venice is sinking
Before my very eyes

Daredevils showin' off
One eighties in the air
Rasta feet on broken glass
The crowd seems unaware
A heavy smell of weed
A Drunken woman shrieks

Venice is Sinking
And no one knows why
Venice is sinking
Before my very eyes
Bridge:
Scavengers are pickin' through the cans
Still sport their summer tans
The Beach Patrol demands they move
Somewhere else... there's nowhere else

Ahh... Ahhh Ahhh.... Ahhh Ahhh... Ahhh Ahhh
(Melody) answer: "Venice is Sinking"
(Melody) answer: "Venice is Sinking"
Ahh... Ahhh Ahhh

The fog rolls in, it's gettin' cold
What's that over there?
A child in a sleeping bag
Wrapped 'round a teddy bear
On her concrete bed
My heart drops like lead... I believe that

Venice is Sinking
And no one cares why
Venice is sinking
Before my very eyes
Venice is Sinking, Venice is sinking, Venice is sinking and I wanna cry
