Roland Orzabal - Don't Drink The Water lyrics

This is a religion

No, this is a drag

That man over there is smoking sweet cigarettes

Hey, look at that fag

I had a dream, I saw you swim

Sink to your grave

Down to Davy Jones's locker

Under the waves

Don't say "thank God for simple truths", yeah

Take me to your leader

Take me for a ride

The shutters were never opened

The days I used to hide

All of the things I never knew

I should have said

When you looked like Frida Kahlo

Curled up in bed

Don't say "thank God for simple truths", yeah

Don't drink the water, baby

Don't drink the water, baby

So much emotion

These eyes a strange kind of blue

Deep as the ocean

They named a sea after you

Don't say "thank God for simple truths", yeah

Don't drink the water, baby

Don't drink the water, baby

Don't drink the water, baby

Don't drink the water, baby
