Men Without Hats - Intro / Walk On Water Lyrics






Here is the water
The one that rushes
From our hearts into the sea
Endlessly hoping to be
Here is the water
The one that rushes from our
Minds into the street
Endlessly hoping to meet

They said we could walk on water
They said we should knock on wood
We did none of these things and they said we could sing
So we sang about falling in love
They said that we were getting smarter
They said that we were something new
We were none of these things and they said we could sing
So we sang about twenty and two
We done all the wrong things
And all we done good

They said we were the new beginning
They said we were a brand new start
We were none of these thing and they said we could sing
So we sang about the state of the art
They said we were the second coming
They said we were a different breed
We were none of these things and they said we could sing
So we sang about the birds and the bees
Bunch of do nothing that were down on your knees

Can you walk on water
But can you walk on - W A T E R (oh no)
Can you walk on - W A T E R
Oh can you walk on water

They said we could walk on water
They said we should knock on wood
We did none of these things and they said we could sing
So we sang about falling in love
They say that we say we say something
They say that we say something new
We say some of these things and they say we can sing
So we sang about a hundred and two
But if nobody listens well nothing comes true
When you walk on water
When you walk on - W A T E R (oh no)
Can you walk on - W A T E R
Oh can you walk on water
Can you walk on - W A T E R (oh no)
Can you walk on - W A T E R
Oh can you walk on water
We never walked on - W A T E R
So tell me something smarter W A T E R

Matadors monkeys, a million balloons
As we walk through the sea to the sand
Knowing full well that we're perfectly tuned
As we skip through our hearts hand in hand

Well jenny the older
Whose music we heard
Will we all meet again at the end of the world

No sense in fooling
We're covered in dreams
Having too much fun flying to land
Floating waste high in tendrils of green
We're so small but we feel oh so grand

Well jenny the older
Whose music we heard
Will we all meet again at the end of the world

End of the world

Well jenny the older
Whose music we heard
Will we all meet again at the end of the world

The end of the world
On tuesday
The end of the world
Pop goes the world
The end of the world
Pop goes the world

On tuesday
The end of the world
The real world
Pop goes the world
On tuesday

Men Without Hats Intro / Walk On Water Comments
  1. A.... M....

    This is an absolute brilliant song from a brilliant band. So much goodness in here. Makes me want to go doing cartwheels all over the place.

    Unfortunately they made that awesome Love In the Age of War album but haven’t given us anymore.

    But if nobody listens, well nothing comes true.....when you walk on water

  2. J.... L....

    Absolutely marvelous !!

  3. n.... n....

    Love " End of the world' best. A great simple sad song, but so good.

  4. S.... B....

    "We done all the wrong things
    And all we done good" - Ivan Doroschuk

  5. T.... ....

    Teleports me back. Christmas 1987. I wore the tape out.

  6. C.... H....

    Love this song

  7. M.... C....

    This album was MWH's magnum Opus. What a neglected masterpiece!

  8. S.... M....

    I totally forgot how good this song is......makes me want to dance like a crazy person

  9. P.... W....

    Powerful voice and song! Gotta love Ivan D!!

  10. U.... ....

    Ivan is a f*ing musical FORCE!

  11. J.... D....

    Quite an incredible song...

  12. D.... O....

    You fkn write this. The intro's spectacular

  13. x.... ....

    To me, this was almost on the same level as PROLOGUE/TWILIGHT on ELO's TIME

    x.... ....

    Another of my favorites! Love ELO and Men Without Hats!

  14. D.... W....

    god this was good --

  15. L.... ....

    I completely didn't remember this song until the music started at 1:08... then OMG!

    L.... ....

    +LionheartRix seriously

    L.... ....

    Me too!!! Great song :)

  16. W.... B....

    Ironically, I thought the title song was the worst song of the album. This song, along with The Real World, O Sole Mio, On Tuesday and The End of the World were the pinnacle of Men Without Hats greatness.

    W.... B....

    I agree. I bought the album for pretty much the other tracks, but eventually Pop Goes the World grew on me. But, it's not as good as this or the others you mention + Moonbeam

  17. E.... ....

    I like Safety Dance....but this one is their BEST track ever!   WOW!!!

  18. K.... R....

    Such a PERFECT album... :)

  19. E.... B....

    Their best song. Nr. 2 Jenny wore black and nr. 3 Pop goes the world. One of the best popalbum ever!

  20. F.... ....

    Great tune. Could have made it on the radio if the intro was excluded

  21. t.... ....

    Wow, seriously? what a band.
