Death by Drowning by The Birthday Party Lyrics

To get a breath of fresh air
A tempestuous sea
A howling gale
Dirty weather
Hang around until lunch

Death by drowning
Death by drowning

It's an absolute dump
To get the tips of your toes wet
To be suntanned
His skin's peeling
To build sandcastles

Death by drowning
Death by drowning

To get out of one's depth
Carried off by the current
Lovely sea trip
The sea is only
A stone's throw from the beach
Death by drowning
Death by drowning
