There Goes Your Baybay - Todd Rundgren

Your ship is sinking in a swirling sea

The water’s rising up around your knees

Let’s pop the question

Is it time to leave?

You say maybe

You’re at the bottom of an avalanche

A swift departure is your only chance

You say it doesn’t make a difference 'cause

There goes your baybay

There goes your baybay

There goes your baybay

You never thought you’d see her

Walking away

There goes your baybay

There goes your baybay

There goes your baybay

You never thought that it would

Affect you this way

The market’s crashing and the bulls and bears

Are falling out of windows everywhere

You’ve got it covered and you just don’t care

Yeah, it’s crazy

You made some clever moves in real estate

It’s caviar upon a golden plate

Until you’re throttled by the hand of fate

There goes your baybay

You know I’ve seen it happen all the time

You get too far above the bottom line

One day you’re sure that everything is fine

Then the next day you see

I stand behind every word I said

It takes a special thing to make her stay

And I was convinced that I had found a way

Now I can’t believe it’s happened to me

'cause there goes my baybay
