lyrics

One more package at the door
plastic junk, lined up the shore
well don’t you ever look around
trouble’s coming and you must slow down,
now slow down, slow down

Hear the call of the quaking springs
or fulfill your fossil dreams
something’s coming up the road
straight for the mansions and you must unload
now unload, unload

Cause that tall water’s gonna fly
tall water’s gonna fly
over your head

You keep running out of time
how can I spin it to twist your mind
you’ve got a blue destination
soon I’ll have your attention,
attention, attention

tall water’s gonna fly
tall water’s gonna fly
over your head
