The River - Live from Down By The River Thames

Well, come on, you're weak at knees
Afraid of the thought police
You, who say our generation is forsaken

Get out of your clouds of weed
Get out of your time machines
You can say that the sleeper has awakened

You gotta scream and shout
If you're gonna work this out
Change comes when the water falls
I've been waiting so long for you down by the river

Well, the walls are closing in
And your head's in constant spin
And the pain in your eyes I do comprehend
Don't believe celebrities
The money-suckin' MPs
The device in your hands, imitation beauty

You gotta scream and shout
If you're gonna work this out
Change comes when the water falls
I've been waiting so long for you down by the river

You lick your lips like a prizefighter
Then show me it can take a punch
Your knuckles can't get no whiter
I'm gonna eat you for lunch, boy
So come on

You gotta scream and shout
If you're gonna work this out
Change comes when the water falls
I've been waiting so long for you down by the river
