The Beautiful South

Let Go With The Flow

The superfly guy that you're courting now

Used to be a super-swot

And the clothes he thinks look retro

Are more 'Land That Time Forgot'

And if he knows where he was standing

When J.F.K was shot

Chances are though time's passed him by

He's still standing within yards of that spot

So if your hangover feels like the dart board

Whilst the Christians hit bulls-eye

And paranoia that self-employer

Is following in heavy disguise

Off goes intelligence to join high tide

To drift with all the things we let go

Only tidal wave could possibly save

All we let go with the flow

Let go with the flow

Books we may have written, we don't know

Let go with the flow

Some enchanted city we wont go

He who used to float like a butterfly once

Is floating like a glorious moth

And the flygirls you hung around with then

Are lucky if they even take off

Dresses and skirts you thought were in

Everyone a dust-rag or dishcloth

Like every flat beer that they serve around here

We all start life as fabulous froth

So why do you work yourself that hard

When you don't even like the job?

Why do you hate the small-time thief

When it's your own time you'll always rob?

Off goes intelligence to join high tide

To drift with all the things we let go

Only tidal wave could possibly save

All we let go with the flow

Let go with the flow

Books we may have written, we don't know

Let go with the flow

Some enchanted city we wont go
