[Intro]<\/p>\n
[Low Synth Drone, Spoken Vocal, Distant and Fragmented]<\/p>\n
Listen to the water
\n(Do you hear it rise?)
\nLook across the valley
\n(See it with your eyes?)<\/p>\n
Something’s moving
\n(Coming fast)
\nSomething’s changing
\n(From the past)<\/p>\n
[Verse 1]
\nRain comes down
\nThe ground can’t take it
\nEvery channel fills
\nWho knows if we’re gonna make it\u2014<\/p>\n
To the bank
\n(Hope sank!)
\nThen another surge
\n(Splurge)
\n… who’s to thank?<\/p>\n
[Pre-Chorus]
\nUp the creek
\n(Without a paddle)
\nGuess we’re about…
\n… to find out…
\n(There’s no way out)<\/p>\n
[Refrain]
\nMore surprises
\n(As the river rises)
\nOver the bank…
\n(Who’s to thank)<\/p>\n
Rising higher
\n(Getting dire)
\nHigher, higher<\/p>\n
[Verse 2]
\nLoad it up
\n(Yup, up, up, up!)
\nThen let it pour
\n(Raging roar!)<\/p>\n
[Refrain]
\nMore surprises
\n(As the river rises)
\nOver the bank…
\n(Who’s to thank)<\/p>\n
Rising higher
\n(Getting dire)
\nHigher, higher<\/p>\n
[Instrumental, Saxophone Solo]
\n[Bridge]
\nHigher than yesterday
\nHigher than before
\nWater at the doorstep
\nWater through the door<\/p>\n
[Instrumental, Psychedelic Jam, Percussion]
\n[Breakdown]<\/p>\n
Surprise!
\n(Rise!)<\/p>\n
Higher!
\n(Dire!)<\/p>\n
More!
\n(Than before!)<\/p>\n
… coming through the door?<\/p>\n
[Instrumental]
\n[Pounding drums]
\n[Rolling bass]
\n[Organ rising]<\/p>\n
Higher…<\/p>\n
Higher…<\/p>\n
Higher…<\/p>\n
[Final Refrain]
\nMore surprises
\n(As the river rises)
\nOver the bank…
\n(Who’s to thank)<\/p>\n
Rising higher
\n(Getting dire)
\nHigher, higher<\/p>\n
More surprises
\n(More surprises!)<\/p>\n
River rises
\n(River rises!)<\/p>\n
Higher…<\/p>\n
Higher…<\/p>\n
Higher!<\/p>\n
[Outro]
\nWatch the water…<\/p>\n
(Watch it rise)<\/p>\n
Watch the water…<\/p>\n
(Before your eyes)<\/p>\n
Higher…<\/p>\n
Higher…<\/p>\n
Dire!<\/p>\n
