The Turning Tide - SFA

Posting this here rather than YT recomm's, because I've posted the lyrics underneath, for anyone who appreciates/enjoys the *subtleties/structures of phrasing and scansion

* yes I do realise that the 'experts' may/will laugh at this almost definitely misplaced notion!

The Turning Tide - Super Furry Animals

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

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
Ah

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
Cause 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
