How much junk in my life do I really need?

Cliff Jumping. South Africa

Lyrics from Waterfall by James:


Watching too much TV
I’m an actor in a puppet show.
There’s so much stuff in my life, no room for me to grow.
One day I’m going to break from my life – due south down to Mexico,
I’m going to burn down my house
it’s the only way to let it go.

Under the waterfall,
Under the waterfall,
Under the waterfall it’s cool and cold and clear.

Run your hands ‘cross the flanks of a horse,
Feel the pulse of blood the heat and the force.
It’s an antidote to a life spent on the beat
The beat of concrete,
The beat of machines,
Of mobile phones and plasma screens.
How much junk in my life do I really need?

Under the waterfall
Under the waterfall
Under the waterfall it’s cool and cold and clear
