Royal Trux - Lights on the Levee lyrics

There's not too many locals in the place where I'm working A poison jams love but they hold onto pretension They don't wanna go home Ivory girl spent some time walking the levee I saw her there cos that is where I'm usually lookin' They wanna keep dry When I look around, nothing's coming down When's the flood gonna take me out Could be to today, who cares anyway We got all the world to run Lucy Mae Maximus baby, you wanna invade me But Jesus told me nothin' piss him off Like those who misquote him He wants to get straight Some kids got excited and rode their bikes on the levee When the lights went out, I knew that they had drowned In the valley The river don't care No one to guard the row Everyone stays alone He just fell out backwards from the overflow When I look around, nothing's coming down When will the water wash me out
