Water Baby

Will this river cleanse me at last Too pissed off for the future, Too grown for the past I wanna drink something 'til it's gone I want a dead phone and a horse to ride on My first job was a drive-in place Short skirts and roller skates My boss was Jehovah's Witness Cried when I asked if she liked Christmas music Even back then, I knew I was too curious to die Some decisions in life you make Multiple times I swam on, water baby Water baby Water baby Water baby Got out of high school The white collars were stained Knew I'd never own land or Study in Spain Got by adding up tip line change Some folks pay big for a friendly face Read Upton Sinclair and Nickel and Dimed My privileged eyes could still See the light If you work real hard from the day you're born Someone will make sure you stay on the ground Floor Even back then, I knew That something was wrong And if it was, what was I doing Just writing songs And swimming on and on and on and on and on And on Swimming on and on and on and on and on And on and on Now it's sunset on the golden age The government's owned by those Who can pay From the dawn of time, it's been the same Nothing trickles down except Pain Swim to the ocean Swim to the ocean Swim to the ocean Swim to the ocean Swim to the ocean Swim to the ocean (Going on and on and on and on and on and on) Swim to the ocean Swim to the ocean Swim to the ocean (Going on and on and on and on and on and on) Swim to the ocean Swim to the ocean Swim to the ocean (It goes on and on and on and on and on and on) Swim to the ocean Swim to the ocean Swim to the ocean (Going on and on and on and on and on and on) Swim to the ocean Swim to the ocean At the end of each river and stream There'll be you and me (Going on and on and on and on and on and on) (Swim to the ocean) At the end of each river and stream There'll be you and me (Going on and on and on and on and on and on) (Swim to the ocean) At the end of each river and stream There'll be you and me
