"Sinking Ship" is a song by the American rock band Cake and was released on October 25, 2018.[1]
According to John McCrea, the song is a project he had worked on since he was 16, but put away for a long time. He wrote new music for the song as "the theme seems really relevant".[2]
The song is the band's first new original song in seven years.[3]

The song was then exclusively released on Cake's SoundCloud on August 3, 2018.[4] It was later deleted from Cake's SoundCloud channel in late September. On October 25, 2018, Cake then announced that "Sinking Ship" was out for download on all digital platforms on their Facebook.[5][non-primary source needed] All of the proceeds from the song are donated to the organization Doctors without Borders.[3]
