Lyrics:

(Dave)
who Will Save The River Valley Thats My Drinking Water
this Was Once A Sacred Place Now, Look At What Weve Got Here
ill Pretend There Isnt Any Problem, Just Do My Job
and If I Dont Like The Standard Of Living, Go Move To Russia...

(Dave And Jian)
me And Pete Went Swimming Last Night, Hes My Friend From Boy Scouts
all The Fish Were Floating Upright, We Got Scared, And We Got Out
(Dave, W Rest Backing Up Certain Phrases)
mother Says Dont Play Down Where Your Father Does His Job
and Though Hes Got To Make Living, Or Move To Russia...

(Jian)
this Is My World, This Is My World, Dont Let It Go Away
is It A Crime, Spending My Time, Dreaming Of Yesterday

(Dave And Jian)
meet Me In The River Valley, You Can Tell Me Stories
bout A Time Before Pinstripe Suits, Dippers, Grits, And Tories

(Mike)
my Mother Sang The Songs Her Mother Taught Her
and Wed Be Swimming Off In Cool, Cool Water
and When Shed Call Us From The Yard
running Home It Felt Like God...

(All)
this Is My World, Dont Take It Away...

(Dave And Jian)
is Your Favourite Place Controlled By Developing Ambitions
do You Think Youll Have Some Power Signing A Petition
are You Fine With Your Surroundings Are They Gonna Crumble
im Living In The River Valley, Come And Join Me For A Tumble!

(Mike)
high Up Above, See The Cars Up On The Viaduct
from Sunrise To The Last Call - They Push Their Luck
and That Would Be Fine
if The World Was Yours, And You Were Mine

(All) (Mike)
who Will Save The River Valley (This Is My World)
who Will Save The River Valley (This Is My World)
who Will Save The River Valley (This Is My World)

who Will Save The River Valley
