Moving the River Lyrics


You surely are a truly gifted kid
But you're only as good as
The last great thing you did
And where've you been since then?
Did the schedule get you down?I hear you've got a new girlfriend
How's the wife taking it ?
If it's uphill all the way
You should be used to it by nowYou must know me, father it's your son
And I know that you are proud
Of everything I've done
But it's the wonders I perform
Pulling rabbits out of hats
When sometimes I'd preferSimply to wear them
If it's uphill all the way
You should be used to it and say
My back is broad enough sir
To take the strain and it'sHello mother, it's your son
And aren't you proud, of all I've done?

But I'm turkey hungry, I'm chicken free
And I can't break dance on your kneeBut it's stay right there son, baby do
While eye is itchin' for something new
So watch me hawkeye understand
The force of will, the sleight of handMovin' the river
I'm turkey hungry, I'm chicken free
And I can't break dance on your knee
Movin' the riverBucket by spoon, and do you think
That they'll like me when they learn what I do
Movin' the river
Money for jam
But it takes such an effort to stay where I amBut it's stay right there son, baby do
While eye is itchin' for something new
Watch me hawkeye understand
The force of will, the sleight of handMovin' the river
I'm turkey hungry, I'm chicken free
Movin' the river
And I can't break dance on your knee
Movin' the riverMovin' the river
Movin' the river
Movin' the river
...

Prefab Sprout are an English pop band from Witton Gilbert, County Durham formed in 1976, who rose to fame during the 1980s. Though critically acclaimed, and considered by many to have released some of the best pop albums of the decade, the band never matched this acclaim with commercial success. The band's best known lineup comprised Paddy McAloon (vocals, guitar, keyboard), Wendy Smith (vocals, guitar, keyboard), Martin McAloon (bass), and Neil Conti (drums).
