The Dripping Tap
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.
The dripping tap won’t be turned off by the suits in charge of the world
And our futures hanging on by a thread with our heads in the sand
The dripping tap won’t be turned off by the gods up above us
Big sky country
That we never hear from in these times of our dying needs
A familiar sound ignored
The compartmentalised thoughts
In the back corner of the drawer
That drip, drip on the floor
Don’t get drowned
Heed that sound
Left the tap on
Swamping out of the sink
Left the tap on
Agua flowin’ in
Left the tap on
Blankets over my skin
Left the tap on
Wish I learnt how to swim
Left the tap on
Swamping out of the sink
Left the tap on
Agua flowin’ in
Left the tap on
Blankets over my skin
Left the tap on
Wish I learnt how to swim
The dripping tap won’t be turned off by the suits in charge of the world
And our futures hanging on by a thread with our heads in the sand
Drip, drip from the tap don’t slip
Drip, drip from the tap don’t slip on the drip
Everybody’s on the same orbit
When they get old and moronic
Get complacent and get bored
That drip, drip on the floor
Don’t get drowned
Heed that sound
Left the tap on
Swamping out of the sink
Left the tap on
Agua flowin’ in
Left the tap on
Blankets over my skin
Left the tap on
Wish I learnt how to swim
The dripping tap won’t be turned off by the suits in charge of the world
And our futures hanging on by a thread with our heads in the sand
The dripping tap won’t be turned off by the gods up above us
Big sky country
That we never hear from in these times of our dying needs
