Nellee Hooper - 1-800 Clap Your Hands (The Water Is Rising) lyrics

[Verse 1] One eight hundred, clap your hands Petal to the medal and we don't look back We'll change your name, ride first cla** Fasten your seat belt, get real taxed Living large is what we do Hug me hard so I don't forget you We say scream, we can't undo It's all moving fast for me but who knew? [Chorus] The water is rising way over my head But I'm still safe and warm in my bed The water is rising way over my head But I'm still safe and warm in my bed I'm only dreaming, yeah, I'm only dreaming [Verse 2] Every magazine that I read's got Ten more ways to ruin me With the chip on my shoulder, shoes too tight Party in the pool, party at night Paint you up and down with this beat I'll follow you and you'll follow me It's gonna take you and your 7 nation army I'll fight cause I know I'm right [Chorus] The water is rising way over my head But I'm still safe and warm in my bed The water is rising way over my head But I'm still safe and warm in my bed I'm only dreaming, yeah, I'm only dreaming, yeah [Bridge] I'll never forget what I leave behind me I just make space, make room for sighing, ah ah I make peace and love for a living Make the children dance and sing, ah well ah [Chorus] The water is rising way over my head But I'm still safe and warm in my bed The water is rising way over my head But I'm still safe and warm in my bed I'm only dreaming, I'm only dreaming
