By The River Song Lyrics
I Like Rivers, I Like Rivers
Sailboats, Fisherman, Skinny-Dipping Swimmers
Kids Turning Rocks Over Catching Lil Critters
Eagle In The Pine Tree Eyeballing Dinner
My Uncle Used To Cut School To Hit The Susquehanna
Kept Himself A Rod And Reel He Hid Up In The Bramble
The School Took Attendance, It Was Quiet As A Mouse
He Was At The River Pulling Out A Giant By Its Mouth
A River In The Daylight Is Energy And Life
A River In The Dark Can Be A Genuine Surprise
You Might Find Somе Lovers Getting Cozy On The Shorе
Or A Cold-Blooded Psychopath Disposing Of A Corpse
Sitting By The Hudson River Talking To A Ghost
“I Wish That We Could Rock A Beat And Smoke An L At Tone’s
I Miss The Way You Rhyme And How You Never Had A Clone
Ain’t A Motherfucker Living That Could Ever Crack The Code”
I Like Rivers, I Like Rivers
Freight Ships Passing Through Old Drawbridges
It Looks So Cool When You Catch It From A Distance
A Little Less Cool When You Stuck Inside Your Civic
I Wonder What Could Possibly Be Lurking On The Bottom
I Look Into The Water And Imagine All The Options
A Fish We Never Knew About, Some Rusty Old Jalopy
The Murder Weapon Used To Catch The Aforementioned Body
I Seen A Beaver Chilling By The Bank Of The Willamette
We Gazed Upon Each Other Undeniably Enchanted
A Wave Of Telepathic Information Through The Filter
It Said “When I Go To Heaven I Want You To Have The River”
He Also Said The Others Had Agreed That I Was Chosen
Just Don’t Mention It Front Of Them As Gloating Is For No One
I’m Pretty Sure You Don’t Have The Authority To Say This
But Thank You, I Accept, I’ll Have My Lawyer Draft The Papers
I Like Rivers, I Like Rivers
Hard To Put A Price On Water For The Village
I Jumped Into The Amazon To Launder All My Atoms
The Chao Praya Had Me Spilling Coffee On The Captain
My Heart Is In The East River Floating On A Frisbee
That Came In From The Long Island Sound To Sojourn In The City
It’s Not The Kinda Water Where You’d Throw A Triple Lindy
If You Get Some On Your Skin They Probably Notify Your Siblings
I Picture A Scenario Where Someone’s Held Me Captive
And Escape Would Mean To Build A Raft And Navigate Some Rapids
I Wonder If My Training From The School Of TV Magic
Would Beget Some Makeshift Watercraft That Make Off For Damascus
In Practice I Have No Desire Get Into The Water
I Like To Know It’s There In The Event I Ever Wanna
Waterfalls, Tributaries, Lichtenberg Figures
Twilight Fireflies, I Like Rivers
