"Swimfish" lyrics

The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown Lyrics

"Swimfish"

Well, we've nailed down the truth in a coffin of lies
With our spells and our cunning deception
The evil of our nature buzzes 'round us like flies
Is it too late to find our connection?

Oh we've all been tourists on the shores of Hell
To help us forget to remember
When you're going nowhere, everywhere's a hotel
And the guests have no name and no number

So open your heart and sing this with me
Love is my religion, a wide, endless sea
Let us swim with the fish that have always been free
And we'll touch what our dreams have forgotten
So open your heart and sing this with me
Love is my religion, a wide, endless sea
Let us swim with the fish that have always been free
And we'll touch what our dreams have forgotten

Well, the ground is all sick and the air cannot breathe
We've infected our sons and our daughters
We've wasted the gifts that life gave us in trust
And we've poisoned the plants and the waters

We stand in the court all accused of our crimes
Only mercy still left to defend us
The animals watch as the judge makes a sign
Will she save us or just simply end us?

So open your heart and sing this with me
Love is my religion, a wide, endless sea
Let us swim with the fish that have always been free
And we'll touch what our dreams have forgotten
So open your heart and sing this with me
Love is my religion, a wide, endless sea
Let us swim with the fish that have always been free
And we'll touch what our dreams have forgotten
