The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well you gotta come down to the reservoir
I don't care who the hell you are
If you're a moving violation or a movie star
You're welcome round here now
If you're an untamed youth or an uncouth dame
You've got little letters after but can't spell your name
I really don't care to me you're the same
If you're hanging round here now
Then you can see how strangely quiet we all are
At the reservoir
You gotta come down to the reservoir
I don't care who you say you are
If you're a washed up bum or a gay bourgeious
You're welcome round here now
'Cos at the water's edge we can all lie down
And someone can run and get dreams from the town
But make them sweet for my friends these clowns
Who hang around me now
You need your medicine to help the sugar down
So stick around
You need your medicine to help the sugar down
so stick around
So good to see ya
I know the name but not the face
And if you're looking for action baby
This ain't the place, yeah
So good to see ya
You've done something different with your hair
Leave your inibitions at home
And your flick knife over there
You gotta come down to the reservoir.
I don't care who you say you are.
If you're a moving violation or a movie star
You're welcome around here now.
'Cos at the water's edge we can all lie down
And someone can run and get dreams from the town.
But make them sweet
For my friends these clowns
Who hang around me now.
Then you can see how strangely quiet we all are
At the reservoir.
