Lyrics

Up the gangway onto the ship
Rolling beads shifting over their hips
Come along, ‘fore too long
You’ll find the walls are closing in

Linen suits and wandering eyes
Rubies, lace, and diamonds entice
Come along, ‘fore too long
You’ll find the walls are closing in

Lights out! What do you know?
A loud crack and another one’s cold
Door’s locked, and there’s nowhere to go
Pop! Pop ‘n’ pop!
Drop to the floor

Jealous rage, a sinister plot
Cloud of smoke and the barrel’s still hot
Come along, ‘fore too long
You’ll find the walls are closing in

There she is just waving her fan
He can tell by the red on her hand
Come along, ‘fore too long
You’ll find the walls are closing in

Lights out! What do you know?
A loud crack and another one’s cold
Door’s locked, and there’s nowhere to go
Pop! Pop ‘n’ pop!
Drop to the floor

Bang, bang!
Bang, bang!
Bang, bang!
Bang, bang!
Come along, ‘fore too long
You’ll find the walls are closing in

Lights out! What do you know?
A loud crack and another one’s cold
Door’s locked, and there’s nowhere to go
Pop! Pop ‘n’ pop!
Drop to the floor
