The food ships stopped coming to starve us out of our homes And when they saw we weren't running they turned on our dogs Fish balls of poison thinly veiled threats Left us to wonder were we next? Oh the lifeboats oh the lifeboats oh the lifeboats will come Forced into the steamer lying head to toe Useful horses on the top deck us down below A plank for a bed and one lousy pot The horses were fed we were not Oh the lifeboats oh the lifeboats oh the lifeboats will come Miscarriage suicide too shattered to think Hunger and madness too tired to drink The milk of sadness mocking our thirst Forced us to remember we were cursed We left our belongings our livestock were shot Our crops in the ground left to rot Take plenty of fruit and one change of clothes Left destitute our island disposed Oh the lifeboats oh the lifeboats oh the lifeboats will come Oh the lifeboats oh the lifeboats oh the lifeboats will come
