Thames Soup - The Phoenix Foundation

Why wait?

If you gotta free your fate, then drink it

Enjoy it while you sink it

I’ll fake you, well I make it with the night

Tie off and down I’ll pull the Thames soup

A drop of blood on my suit

A drop is just enough to leave the stain

On your shirt

And the city is a jerk

I’ll find a way

'Cause baby I love you so

Oh whoa whoa whoa

I can’t see clear

I don’t live here

And the Thames

It’s riding in my ballad

My heart is sick and swelling

Exploding like a melon on the street

Crawl off and hide until it settles

All the horny little devils

Are rushing through my blood

I read the message

You send

That called me out so bad

And I thought if I replied

Baby I love you so

Oh whoa whoa whoa

It all comes clear

I don’t live here

I never did

And now I know

I love you so

I gotta feed my woman

Feed my woman

Help me out

I’m dying here

See my body floating in the filthy water

Wash me to this

Sea of arms and open homes

Where you alone know

You alone know

What to keep and what to throw away

Oh, can I stay?

Or do I go?

I can’t see clear

I don’t live here
