Super Furry Animals lyrics - The Turning Tide The Turning Tide

It just occurred to me
That things aren't as they seem
It's conspiracy
Aaaah

And we're living in a world of quicksand
Castles on their keep
Still waiting under siege
For the turning tide up
Need some inspiration
Time to hitch a ride
On the turning tide
Ah ha ha

The service was so slow
My eyes began to grow
Into telescopes
Aaaah

That are looking at a world of quicksand
Castles on their keep
Still waiting under siege
For the turning tide up
Need some inspiration
Time to hitch a ride
On the turning tide

And we're living in a world of quicksand
Castles on their keep
Still waiting under siege
For the turning tide up
Need some inspiration
With no obligation
Coz there's quicksand
Sucking up the goodness
Graciously impatiently
Is that the time out?
Need recuperation
Time to hitch a ride
On the turning tide
To the turning tide
To the turning tide
To the turning tide
To the turning tide
To the turning tide

Quote (Gruff):
"Lyrically it's about living in a time of change, or wanting to embrace change. It's things like service being so slow. We're living in a time of service industry and Britain is fundamentally cut out for socialism because people don't want to serve you. I'm worried that it's a bit of a suicidal song, a bit Reginald Perrin. That wasn't my intention, the intention was more uplifting."
