Tim O'Brien - No Way To Stop The Flow lyrics

rate me

Sortin' through my junk mail, pickin’ up all my scraps

Siftin’ through this deep pile, I’m checkin’ out all of my traps

Unpackin’ my suitcase but it’s already time to go

A rushin’ river of detail, no way I can stop the flow

No way I can stop the flow

Don’t know when it’s mornin’ or when it’s time to sleep

Fallin’ into a tunnel boys it surely is dark and deep

Take a look at me honey, is my head spinnin’ around

Are there still bones here in my body

Are my feet still touchin’ the ground

Are my feet still touchin’ the ground

I don’t need any acid, I don’t need any bass

I got plenty here to amuse me

And it’s hidin’ here behind my face

The dew is heavy in the mornin’, also heavy in the dark

The flowers are growin’ all around me

When I make my bed in the park

When I make my bed in the park

Little Henry the hamster is Henrietta today

Startin’ out in one direction and then comin’ back the other way

Some day I might burn up, I might just leave a little stain

Spontaneous action, I’ll be gone the next time it rains

Gone the next time it rains

Sortin' through my junk mail, pickin’ up all my scraps

Siftin’ through my deep pile, I’m checkin’ out all of my traps

Unpackin’ my suitcase but it’s already time to go

A rushin’ river of detail, no way I can stop the flow

There’s no way to stop the flow
