Smog - River guard lyrics

When I take the prisoners swimming

They have the time of their lives

I love to watch them floating

On their backs

Unburden and relaxed

I sit in the tall grass and look the other way

And when I hall them in they always sing

Our *sentences* will not served

We are constantly on trial

It's a way to be free

Most nights I go for a drive

To the highest place I can find

Stand there on a cliff with gooseflesh

Watching the wind rip the leaves of the trees

Death defying

Every breath

Death defying

Soon we all be back in the yard

Behind the wall

Leaving heart

Dreaming of cool rivers and tall grass

We are constantly on trial

It's a way to be free

We are constantly on trial

It's a way to be free
