[Verse 1]
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 pa**ed him by
He's still standing within yards of that spot
[Pre-Chorus 1]
So if your hangover feels like the dart board
Whilst the Christians hit bullseyes
And paranoia that self-employer
Is following in heavy disguise
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
He who used to float like a bu*terfly 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 dish cloth
Like every flat beer that they serve around here
We all start life as fabulous froth
[Pre-Chorus 2]
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?
[Chorus]
[Outro]
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...
