lyrics

Just one urination
Upon one blade of grass
One ghastly taste of human
And all will be lost
I stopped to drink the water
But I’d never drunk like this
Only bottled, clear blue liquid
From a factory run by a pig
Who pays his workers like children
Treats his children like kings
Treats his kings like his best friends
And his best friends like rival pigs
Oh all will be lost

Writing our tale, caught up in the spring
South of the border, where purity wins
Hang on for dear life, to the city we sing
Do what you want, just don't touch the water

And while this languid city water
Labours clumsily like puke
Over diseased, lumpy porcelain
From the old rich to the poor youth
Different shades, chemicals and blood
A million ways to poison us
There’s some water in there somewhere
But its energy’s all used up

Writing our tale, caught up in the spring
South of the border, where purity wins
Hang on for dear life, to the city we sing
Do what you want, just don't touch the water

Such a beautiful journey
Over pristine rock and earth
Over tumbling waterfall
Punctured only by beak of bird
To be dropped into a whirlpool
Spun around like a lovers’ dance
During their headiest routine
At the beginning of the sweetest romance
Oh all is not lost
