Sun in his cups, cuffs Doesn't hear the water rushing Down on the town Stands in his beetle crushing Boots in his hand A record by The Undecided One out of one Multiplied and then divided What I want Waits unnoticed And what I get Rain in my bed Oh, I need a new river head Snakes in the grass Sliding through the haunted gardens Down in the park Watching as the shadows harden Left in the road, repose No-one ever realizes What you once were Here in your new disguises What I want Waits unnoticed And what I get Rain in my bed Oh, I need a new river head Dead or asleep It doesn't really matter to me Here in my world Step inside And walk right through me I don't even see I'm so involved in what I'm doing Out of my grip I'm unconcerned with rack or ruin What I want Waits unnoticed And what I get Rain in my bed Oh, I need a new river head Time slips away In this land of lakes and castles Biding my time Closing my eyes I wrap it up in paper parcels Deep in the ground All your sorry sisters flowing Woven in lead With little specks of silver showing What I want Waits unnoticed And what I get Rain in my bed Oh, I need a new river head Oh, I need a new river head Oh, I need a new river head
