Don't Drink the Water by Dave Mathews Band

I currently am not a Dave Matthews fan, but love how riled up the message in this song can get you when you really, really listen! Sometimes it's all in the lyrics...A love song, I think not!!! "Now as I rest my feet by this fire, Those hands once warmed here, Well I have retired them, I can breathe my own air, I can sleep more soundly, Upon these poor souls, I'll build heaven and call it my home..."

Come out, come out

No use in hiding

Come now, come now

Can you not see?!?

There's no place here

What were you expecting

Not room for both

Just room for me!!!

Say you will lay your arms down

Yes I will call this my home

Away, away

You have been banished

Your land is gone

And given to me!

And here I will spread my wings:)

Yes I will call this my home

What's this you say

You feel the right to remain...?

Then stay and I will bury you!

All I can say to you my new neighbor

Is you must move on or I will bury you!!!

Here's the hitch

Your horse is leaving

Don't miss your boat

It's leaving now

And as you go I will spread my wings!!!

Yes I will call this home

Well I have no time to justify to you

Fool you're blind, move aside for me!!!
What this you say 
You feel the right to remain 
Then stay and I will bury YOU!

Now as I rest my feet by this fire

Those hands once warmed here

Well I have retired them

I can breathe my own air

I can sleep more soundly

Upon these poor souls

I'll build heaven and call it my home

'Cause you're all dead now

I live with my justice

I live with my greedy need!

I live with no mercy

I live with my frenzied feeding

I live with my hatred

I live with my jealousy

I live with the notion

That I don't need anyone but me!!!!

Don't drink the water

There's blood in the water
