the fugs - wide, wide river lyrics

(gospel sound)
river of sh-t
river of sh-t
flow on, flow on, river of sh-t
right from my toes
on up to my nose
flow on, flow on, river of sh-t

(transition to rock)
i’ve been swimming in this river of sh-t
more than 20 years, and i’m getting tired of it
don’t like swimming, hope it’ll soon run dry
got to go on swimming, cause i don’t want to die

(spoken with gospel sound in background):
who dealt this mess, anyway?
yea, it’s an old card player’s term
but sometimes you can use the old switcheroo and it can be applied to …
frontal politics
what i mean is …
who was it that set up a system
supposedly democratic system
where you end up always voting for the lesser of two evils?
i mean, was george washington the lesser of two evils?
sometimes i wonder …
you got some guy that says
“for god sake, we’ve got to stop having violence in this country.”
while he’s spending 16,000 dollars a second snuffing gooks

(gospel sound musical ending)
a wiiiiiiiiiiiiide, big brown river, yea, bringing health, wealth, and prosperity to every man, women, and child
