New River Head

Sun in his cups
Doesn't hear the water rushing
Down on the town
Stands in his beetle crushing
Boots, in his hand
A record by The Undecided
One out of one
Multiplied and then divided

What I want
Waits unnoticed
What I get

Rain in my bed
Yeah I need a New River Head

Snakes in the grass
Sliding through the haunted gardens
Down in the park
Watching as the shadows harden
Left in the road
No-one ever realises
What you once were
Here in your new disguises

What I want
Waits unnoticed
What I get

Rain in my bed
Yeah I need a New River Head

Dead or asleep
It doesn't really matter to me
Here in my world
Step inside and walk right through me
I don't even see
I'm so involved in what I'm doing
Out of my grip
I'm more concerned with rack or ruin

What I want
Waits unnoticed
What I get

Rain in my bed
Yeah I need a New River Head

Time slips away
In this land of lakes and castles
Biding my time
I wrap it up in paper parcels
Deep in the ground
All your sorry sisters flowing
Woven in lead
With little specks of silver showing

What I want
Waits unnoticed
What I get

Rain in my bed
Yeah I need a New River Head
