I heard you say falling out of the van "Don't ask for his opinion They ought to drown him in holy water" Will you remember my reply When your high horse dies? We'd like to go the distance But not a one of us is gonna You see no body is wise enough to turn this ancient boat around These are the muddy waters I'm swimming in to make a living That I might drown in them Should come as no surprise You want'em all on your side That just leaves more for doubt to slaughter "I never knew he thought that!" I heard you say falling out of the van "Don't ask for his opinion They ought to drown him in holy water" Will you remember my reply When your high horse dies? You've got'em all on your side That just leaves more for doubt to slaughter "I never knew he thought that!" I heard you say falling out of the van "Don't ask for his opinion They ought to drown him in holy water" Will you remember my reply? One finger parallel to the sky
