[Intro:]
Oh, the mouth of the river,
Oh, the mouth of the river,
Oh, the mouth of the river.

[Verse 1:]
I wanna live a life like that,
Live the life of the faithful one,
Wanna bow to the floor
With everybody else, wanna be someone.
I wanna make some love,
I don't want no enemies,
Oh, it's the curse of the man,
Always living life, living life, living just to please.

 [bad word] ]
Oh, the mouth of the river
And the wrath of the giver,
With the hands of a sinner,
Oh, the mouth of the river,
Oh, the mouth of the river
And the wrath of the giver,
With the hands of a sinner,
Oh, the mouth of the river.

[Verse 2:]
Oh, I'm alkaline –
I'm always keeping to the basics,
I'm overboard,
I'm [bad word] 
And self-important,
And I'm anxious,
Oh, I'm self-assured,
I'm nervous,
And I'm pacing, oh, I'm pacing.

 [bad word] ]
Oh, the mouth of the river
And the wrath of the giver,
With the hands of a sinner,
Oh, the mouth of the river,
Oh, the mouth of the river
And the wrath of the giver,
With the hands of a sinner,
Oh, the mouth of the river,
Oh, the mouth of the river,
Oh, the mouth of the river.

[Bridge:]
And I am going under,
Oh, I am going under,
I am going under,
Oh, I am going under,
I am going under.

 [bad word] ]
Oh, the mouth of the river
And the wrath of the giver,
With the hands of a sinner,
Oh, the mouth of the river,
Oh, the mouth of the river
And the wrath of the giver,
With the hands of a sinner,
Oh, the mouth of the river,
Oh, the mouth of the river,
Oh, the mouth of the river.
