Down At The Reservoir - The Bluetones

Well you gotta come down to the reservoir

I don’t care who the hell you are

If you’re a moving violation or a movie star

You’re welcome round here now

If you’re an untamed youth or an uncouth dame

You’ve got little letters after but can’t spell your name

I really don’t care to me you’re the same

If you’re hanging round here now

Then you can see how strangely quiet we all are

At the reservoir

You’ve gotta come down to the reservoir

I don’t care who you say you are

If you’re a washed-up bum or a gay bourgeois

You’re welcome round here now

'Cause at the water’s edge we can all lie down

And someone can run and get drinks from the town

But make them sweet for my friends

These clowns who hang around me now

You need your medicine to help the sugar down

So you stick around

You need your medicine to help the sugar down

So stick around

So good to see ya

I know the name but not the face

And if you’re looking for action, baby

This ain’t the place, yeah

So good to see ya

You’ve done something different with your hair

Leave your inhibitions at home

And your flick-knife over there

You gotta come down to the reservoir

I don’t care who you say you are

If you’re a moving violation or a movie star

You’re welcome round here now

'Cause at the water’s edge we can all lie down

And someone can run and get drinks from the town

But make them sweet for my friends

These clowns who hang around me now

Then you can see how strangely quiet we all are

At the reservoir, the reservoir
