The superfly guy that you're courting now
 Used to be a super-swot
 And the clothes he thinks look retro
 Are more 'Land That Time Forgot'
 And if he knows where he was standing
 When J.F.K was shot
 Chances are though time's passed him by
 He's still standing within yards of that spot

 So if your hangover feels like the dart board
 Whilst the Christians hit bulls-eye
 And paranoia that self-employer
 Is following in heavy disguise

 Off goes intelligence to join high tide
 To drift with all the things we let go
 Only tidal wave could possibly save
 All we let go with the flow
 Let go with the flow
 Books we may have written, we don't know
 Let go with the flow
 Some enchanted city we wont go

 He who used to float like a butterfly once
 Is floating like a glorious moth
 And the flygirls you hung around with then
 Are lucky if they even take off
 Dresses and skirts you thought were in
 Everyone a dust-rag or dishcloth
 Like every flat beer that they serve around here
 We all start life as fabulous froth

 So why do you work yourself that hard
 When you don't even like the job?
 Why do you hate the small-time thief
 When it's your own time you'll always rob?

 Off goes intelligence to join high tide
 To drift with all the things we let go
 Only tidal wave could possibly save
 All we let go with the flow
 Let go with the flow
 Books we may have written, we don't know
 Let go with the flow
 Some enchanted city we wont go
