New River Head

Lyrics for New River Head

Sun in his cups, cuffs Doesn't hear the water rushing Down on the town Stands in his beetle crushing Boots in his hand A record by The Undecided One out of one Multiplied and then divided What I want Waits unnoticed And what I get Rain in my bed Oh, I need a new river head Snakes in the grass Sliding through the haunted gardens Down in the park Watching as the shadows harden Left in the road, repose No-one ever realizes What you once were Here in your new disguises What I want Waits unnoticed And what I get Rain in my bed Oh, I need a new river head Dead or asleep It doesn't really matter to me Here in my world Step inside And walk right through me I don't even see I'm so involved in what I'm doing Out of my grip I'm unconcerned with rack or ruin What I want Waits unnoticed And what I get Rain in my bed Oh, I need a new river head Time slips away In this land of lakes and castles Biding my time Closing my eyes I wrap it up in paper parcels Deep in the ground All your sorry sisters flowing Woven in lead With little specks of silver showing What I want Waits unnoticed And what I get Rain in my bed Oh, I need a new river head Oh, I need a new river head Oh, I need a new river head
