Beautiful South Let Go With The Flow Lyrics

Let Go With The Flow Lyrics

The super fly guy that you're courtin' 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 standin'

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 won't go



He who used to float like a butterfly once

Is floatin' like a glorious moth

And the fly girls 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 won't go



Let go with the flow

Books we may have written, we don't know

Let go with the flow

Some enchanted city we won't go
