Let Go With The Flow Lyrics - Beautiful South

The superfly guy that you're courting 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 standing 

When J.F.K was shot 

Chances are though time's passed him by 

He's still standing within yards of that spot 

So if your hangover feels like the dart board 

Whilst the Christians hit bulls-eye 

And paranoia that self-employer 

Is following in heavy disguise

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 wont go 

He who used to float like a butterfly once 

Is floating like a glorious moth 

And the flygirls you hung around with then 

Are lucky if they even take off 

Dresses and skirts you thought were in 

Everyone a dust-rag or dishcloth 

Like every flat beer that they serve around here 

We all start life as fabulous froth

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? 

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 wont go
