[Arrangement: Bouncy, slightly manic piano-rock with a descending bass line. Starts playful and curious, then turns into a darker, pounding environmental anthem.]
[Intro]
Where did it go?
(Do you know?)
I had it right here…
(Where’d it go?)
Oh, dear!
[Verse 1]
Started as a snowflake
Falling from the sky
The pressure… he couldn’t take
Dying to fly
[Refrain]
Where did it go
(Do you know?)
Sing the refrain:
(Down the drain!)
Does any remain
(Are you insane?)
Down the drain!
[Verse 2]
Water runs downhill
Flowin’, flowin, flowin’… till
Doesn’t want to stay
No, not another day
[Chorus]
[Refrain]
Where did it go
(Do you know?)
Sing the refrain:
(Down the drain!)
Does any remain
(Are you insane?)
Down the drain!
(Down the drain!)
[Pause]
Can’t ever go back.
(Time travel we lack)
Can’t ever go back…
[Refrain]
Where did it go
(Do you know?)
Sing the refrain:
(Down the drain!)
Does any remain
(Are you insane?)
Down the drain!
[Bridge]
Down the drain
(Gone insane)
Down the drain
(Who will remain?)
[Breakdown]
(Down the drain)
Where did the ice go?
(Down the drain)
Down, down, down
(Down!)
Where do we go?
(Down!)
(Down the drain)
Where did the energy go?
Oh, no, no
[Instrumental]
[Rolling piano / distorted guitar / pounding drums]
Drip!
(Drip!)
Drop!
(Drop!)
Flow!
(Flow!)
Go!
(Go!)
Plop!
[Final Refrain]
Where did it go
(Do you know?)
Sing the refrain:
(Down the drain!)
Does any remain
(Are you insane?)
Down the drain!
Oh, no…
Watch ‘er go!
(No whoa oh oh!)
Oh, no, no, no…
(Just woe, woe, woe!)
Down…
The…
Drain!
[Outro]
Gone insane
[Whisper]
Cannot remain….
