The Hollies

Water On The Brain

(Allan Clarke/Tony Hicks/Graham Nash)

Track 3 on album 'Evolution' june 1967



I've just come in from out of the rain.

It's wet outside, the water runs down a drain.

I go to bed 'cause my head's full of pain.



And,

drip drip, it's driving me wild

drip drip, it's driving me wild



Outside the window, there's a pipe wearing thin.

It lets the water do a dance on a tin.

I try to sleep, but it's making a din.



And,

drip drip, it's driving me wild

drip drip, it's driving me wild



Water on the brain, water on the brain.

Water on the brain, water on the brain.



{interlude}



drip drip, it's driving me wild

drip drip, it's driving me wild



I toss and turn and my patience is weak.

Go to the bathroom door, and I take a peak, yeah.

The bath tap has started a leak.



And

drip drip, it's driving me wild

drip drip, it's driving me wild

drip drip, it's driving me wild

drip drip, it's driving me wild



{postlude fades out}
