we all lie down in the river - shriekback lyrics

Loading...

you never know how close the end is
or how far round the bend is
but you have to find the good place in the head
and i thought i saw you going where the mighty river was flowing
but it might have been somebody else instead
when you’re taking on the pressure: vexed to sobs and all in anguish
(it’s better if we all lie down)
take a load off in the water (bring a snorkel; bring a sandwich)
(it’s better if we all lie down)

we all lie down, yes we all lie down, we all lie down in the river
well u wonder what they’re thinking
in the river when they’re sinking?
a merciless baptism in the weeds
if you’re tortured by your ego
you can lose it where the sea goes
in a fluvial contemplation of your deeds
it’s a dodgy world that’s out there and the ugliness abounds
(it’s better if we all lie down)
but the rivers full of noises: there’s a million pretty sounds
(it’s better if we all lie down)

we all lie down, yes we all lie down, we all lie down in the river

so you’re straining every sinew
* and we know you’ve got it in you *
but you cannot fight with chaos and decay
why not feel the current take you
where a friendly whale awaits you?
and the mermaids are all singing in the bay?
as for earthy kinds of passion i believe i’ve had my ration
(it’s better if we all lie down)
for the river it submerges
all those disconcerting urges
(it’s better if we all lie down)

we all lie down, yes we all lie down, we all lie down in the river
