All aboard this sinking ship

I'm jumping ship just to walk another plank
There's a martyr at the helm
And I think he's been drinking
Don't worry, 'cause I'm just sinking
What could you have possibly been thinking
I'll wrong my rights, I just might
But I just can't go out tonight
Sit tight, I'll be right there
Looking modest and unprepared
I'm getting dressed for my execution
It's the sign of a revolution
And I'm charged with a crime that I didn't commit
They got me locked up for admitting defeat
So lets hope tonight's the night my heart forgets how to beat
Only you can save me now
But you overslept and I'm left for dead
