Don't Drink the Water lyrics

This 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 Jone's locker

Under the waves

Don't say, "Thank God for simple thruths"

Take me to your leader, take me for a ride

The shutters were never open

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 thruths"

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"

Don't drink the water, baby

Don't drink the water, baby

Don't drink the water, baby

(Don't drink the water, baby)

Don't drink the water, baby

(Don't drink the water, baby)
