Don`t Drink the Water — текст песни (Dave Matthews Band and Dave Matthews)

Don`t drink the water here...

Come out, come out, no use in hiding.
Come now, come now, can you not see
There`s no place here, what were you expecting?
No room for both, just room for me.

So you will lay your arms down,
Yes, I will call this home.

Away, away, you have been banished.
Your land is gone, and given to me.

And here I will spread my wings.
Yes, I will call this home.

What`s this you say, you feel a right to remain?
Then stay and I will bury you.

What`s that you say, your father`s spirit still lives in this place?
Well, I will silence you.

Here`s the hitch, your horse is leaving.
Don`t miss your boat, it`s leaving now.

And as you go I will spread my wings.
Yes, I will call this home.
I have no time to justify to you,
Fool, you`re blind, move aside for me.

All I can say to you my new neighbor,
You must move on or I will bury you.

Now as I rest my feet by this fire
Those hands once warmed here, but I have retired them.
I can breathe my own air and I can sleep more soundly
Upon these poor souls,
I`ll build Heaven and call it home.
Cause you`re all dead now.

I live with my justice
And I live with my greedy need
I live with no mercy
And I live with my frenzied feeding
I live with my hatred
And I live with my jealousy
I live with the notion that I don`t need anyone but me

Don`t Drink the Water
Don`t Drink the Water
Blood in the water
Don`t Drink the Water
