This flood wants to rape you Outside it resides and it smiles And Lucy, we've all come to save you But first we're gonna see how loud you scream This flood doesn't like you He wants to be alone, but he can't be lonely This flood soaks your curtains, you give him your certains You give him your plans, give him your thirties This is a rape, this is a bankrupt robbery, a grand larceny So hands can go up, this is a stick up Give me everything If only we could hold this forever The breath, the breath, the headline rise We're gonna scramble just to dam up the river But knowing full well we won't be staying dry We'll go home, go home To your dismal apartment, see how the flood left it Go home, we'll go home Give those bovines a bedsore 'cause that's all you're good for You know, once you know Once you sandbag the walls and pray God to defend that We know, and we all know All the king's men can't put this back together again My soul don't want peace or tranquility My inner self does not require equanimity My soul wants reservations I wanna be someone who never needs reservations, and In my heart, I want my nose to be smaller My incarnation wants my fingernails longer, and And when it comes up to your knees Don't hold your breath, just breathe in deep I want to be able to say in a disassociated way "What the fuck, what the fuck," and "Whatever" If only we could hold this forever The breath, the breath, the headline rise We're gonna scramble just to dam up the river But knowing full well we won't be staying dry We'll go home, go home Keep your hands where I see them, your wallets, your reason Go home, we'll go home It's your life or your money, don't try nothing funny You know, now you know Once you sandbag the walls and pray God to defend that We know, and we all know All the king's men can't put this back together again All the king's men can't put this back together again All the king's men can't put this back together again
