Bad Water
Bad water, bad water
Tryin' to run over me
Bad water, bad water
Tell me why won't you set me free
You know, I'm tryin' make it
And it's so hard to take it
I don't mind tellin' you
That my taxes are overrated
And my money's disintegrated
And, people, right now, I'm goin' through
Nothin' but, bad water, bad water
Tryin' to run all over me
Bad water, bad water
Tell me why won't you set me free
I need some consolation
To ease my situation
All this confusion, it just won't stop
I find myself alone (Alone)
And the shoes that I have on
They are wet from bottom to top
I couldn't walk you to
Bad water, bad water
Tryin' to run all over me
Bad water, bad water
Tell me why don't you set me free
Who started this dissention?
We've got to find us a quick prevention
Hey, why don't you lend me your helpin' hand?
(Lend a hand, lend a hand, lend a hand)
And instead of shoutin' and screamin'
We ought to plan instead of dreamin'
And maybe the whole world will understand
We've got to stop this
Bad water, stop this bad water
Tryin' to run all over me
Nothin' but bad water, oh, oh, ho, bad water
Tell me why don't you set me free
You've always loved this
Bad water, oh, oh, ho, bad water
Tryin' to run all over me
Somebody knows 'bout
Bad water, oh, oh, ho, bad water
Tell me why don't you set me free
Tryin' to run over me
Bad water, bad water
Tell me why won't you set me free
You know, I'm tryin' make it
And it's so hard to take it
I don't mind tellin' you
That my taxes are overrated
And my money's disintegrated
And, people, right now, I'm goin' through
Nothin' but, bad water, bad water
Tryin' to run all over me
Bad water, bad water
Tell me why won't you set me free
I need some consolation
To ease my situation
All this confusion, it just won't stop
I find myself alone (Alone)
And the shoes that I have on
They are wet from bottom to top
I couldn't walk you to
Bad water, bad water
Tryin' to run all over me
Bad water, bad water
Tell me why don't you set me free
Who started this dissention?
We've got to find us a quick prevention
Hey, why don't you lend me your helpin' hand?
(Lend a hand, lend a hand, lend a hand)
And instead of shoutin' and screamin'
We ought to plan instead of dreamin'
And maybe the whole world will understand
We've got to stop this
Bad water, stop this bad water
Tryin' to run all over me
Nothin' but bad water, oh, oh, ho, bad water
Tell me why don't you set me free
You've always loved this
Bad water, oh, oh, ho, bad water
Tryin' to run all over me
Somebody knows 'bout
Bad water, oh, oh, ho, bad water
Tell me why don't you set me free
