Pete Townshend
The Sea Refuses No River

I remember being richer than a king
The minutes of the day were golden
I recall that when the joint passed around
My body felt a little colder
But now I'm like a sewer channel - running lime and scag
Let me get at the master panel - let me at my stack
The sea refuses no river
And right now this river's banks are blown
The sea refuses no river
Whether stinking and rank
Or red from the tank
Whether pure as a spring
There's no damn thing stops the poem
The sea refuses no river
And this river is homeward flowing
I have seen a trace of strain
In other's eyes, not spoken.
I must admit that I enjoyed their pain
But this time it's me that's broken
I demand for you and His
This must be the time
When we decide what freedom is
Turn water into wine
For the sea refuses no river
We're polluted now but in our hearts still clean
The sea refuses no river
We tried not to age
But time had it's rage
We're washed over the stones
From babies into clones of the mean
The sea won't refuse this muddy river
Nor deny the sulphurous stream
There was a fool in a dressing robe
Riding out the twilight hour
Lonely and cold in an empty home
Trying to assess his power
But now he's like a stream in flood
Swollen by the storm
He doesn't care if he sheds his blood
Let him be reborn
For the sea refuses no river
Remember that when the beggar buys a round
The sea refuses no river
And rain fills the gutters
No time for stutters
This is our chance
To sing and dance and to clown
The sea refuses no river
And rivers were sprung to drown
The sea refuses no river
No pecking code respected for the damned
The sea refuses no river
Whether starving and ill
Or strung on some pill
Just 'cos you own the land
There's no unique hand plugs the dam
The sea refuses no river
And the river is where I am
The river is where I am.


Mirror lyrics:

The river is where I am.
And the river is where I am
The sea refuses no river
There's no unique hand plugs the dam
Just 'cos you own the land
Or strung on some pill
Whether starving and ill
The sea refuses no river
No pecking code respected for the damned
The sea refuses no river
And rivers were sprung to drown
The sea refuses no river
To sing and dance and to clown
This is our chance
No time for stutters
And rain fills the gutters
The sea refuses no river
Remember that when the beggar buys a round
For the sea refuses no river
Let him be reborn
He doesn't care if he sheds his blood
Swollen by the storm
But now he's like a stream in flood
Trying to assess his power
Lonely and cold in an empty home
Riding out the twilight hour
There was a fool in a dressing robe
Nor deny the sulphurous stream
The sea won't refuse this muddy river
From babies into clones of the mean
We're washed over the stones
But time had it's rage
We tried not to age
The sea refuses no river
We're polluted now but in our hearts still clean
For the sea refuses no river
Turn water into wine
When we decide what freedom is
This must be the time
I demand for you and His
But this time it's me that's broken
I must admit that I enjoyed their pain
In other's eyes, not spoken.
I have seen a trace of strain
And this river is homeward flowing
The sea refuses no river
There's no damn thing stops the poem
Whether pure as a spring
Or red from the tank
Whether stinking and rank
The sea refuses no river
And right now this river's banks are blown
The sea refuses no river
Let me get at the master panel - let me at my stack
But now I'm like a sewer channel - running lime and scag
My body felt a little colder
I recall that when the joint passed around
The minutes of the day were golden
I remember being richer than a king
