The Ways Of Men (BBC Radio 1) - The Waterboys

Well I’ve had enough of the ways of men

Said I’ve had enough of the ways of men

Yes, I’ve had enough of the ways of men

His sordid games rape my brain

Well, I’ve had enough of his tomfoolery and shame

Yes, I’ve had enough of his tomfoolery and his shame

Oooh, I’ve had just enough of his tom-tom foolery and his shame

His sordid games rape my brain

As the wind sweeps across generations up and down the sweep of history

He leaves his tracks in all places, leaves his stain in all beds

He builds schools and pleasures, all designed to prevent illumination

All of his games rape my brain

He put his flag in the desert, but I need water

He put his flag in the desert, but I need water

He put his flag in the desert, but I need water

He put his flag in the desert, but I need water, water, water

Long hast thou dwelt in darkness

Quit the night, and seek the day
