Born in the Water

Rolling hills all covered in suede I'm heat nervous and out of road Downtown there's a parade But I don't think I want to go Smart as trees in Sault Saint Marie I can speak my mother tongue Passing laws, just because And singing songs Of the English unsung Well, how could you do it? Well, how could you even try? When you were born in the water And you were raised up in the sky? Front seat stamped by the window No erasees in this game Arbitrary as the wind blows It's another way to lay claim Ain't no cause for bloodthirsting In a little town so dry Where the angels dance on a pinhead Just to make room for you and I Well, how could you do it? Well, how could you even try? When you were born in the water And you were raised up in the sky? Thoroughbred with their great big heads Think a mile might be too far Highway horses laugh but of course When they don't know where the hell they are Well, smart as trees in Sault Saint Marie Victorious mother tounge Passing laws just because And singing songs of the English unsung Well, how could you do it? Well, how could you even try? When you were born in the water And you were raised up Well, how could you do it? Well, how could you even try? When you were born in the water And you were raised up in the sky?
