River Material Lyrics - The Blue Dogs

A pothole ate my motion 

And let me lay there for a while 

Where I lie smells like a fossil, something died 

Powerful inanimate objects they mortered me 

Some piercing my skin some consuming me 

Saliva on the pavement next to me 

Wash away, wash away oh so gently please 

Is there nothing unpredictable something to hold on to 

Except for math and science and all they know is true 

Well it's something like the river and it's always heading out 

A steady source of motion going down 

Water and debris knockin things down to the sea 

The bottom of the valley and the leaves on the trees 

I began to think that this could happen to me 

Wash away wash away oh so gently please 

Is there nothing unpredictable something to hold on to 

Except for math and science and all they know is true 

True, true, is there nothing true
