"The Waterboy" lyrics
"The Waterboy"
There's a Scottish man
Fronting an American band
Now he lives in Dublin tho'
And I'm in Rosedale lookin' for ghosts
Edinburgh Galway Nashville Ulladulla breakin' my heart
In four places
Singin' 'bout a Mississippi boy
Who once held the world like a toy
Now he's lookin' down from heaven
Smokin' reefers with myths 'n legends
Tupelo Vegas Mollymook Memphis breakin' my heart
In four places
And it may not be his greatest LP
As I'm windin' these streets tears on my knees
All the fishermen and women
In the bottleshops by seven, talkin' where they're bitin'
The best four places
The best four places
Go!
Car stereo
Pushin' me farther down the road
Got a Waterboy singin' for the King
And my eyes are glazin' over
Highway caravan bottleshop no plans lookin' for a start
In four places
His voice reminds me of what
I've left behind so I'm gonna go fishing
Try to imagine what to do next time
Ventricle Aorta muscle and blood building a heart
In four places
None outta ten star gazers would agree
This ain't the centre of the universe
Let alone me
But the tenth sees a face in every constellation
While I'm spinning my wheels
In four places
In four places
Go!
There's a Scottish man
Fronting an American band
Now he lives in Dublin tho'
And I'm in Rosedale lookin' for ghosts
Edinburgh Galway Nashville Ulladulla breakin' my heart
In four places

And were you lost for words

You can't keep up with the trend
It makes you lose, but somehow

But it really doesn't suit my style
