songs called 'water' (1 Viewer)

Hello people of Malaysia
You must learn the right behaviour
Never raise our cost of water
3 sen is just right
Well, kinda ... sorta ....

We don't have much
of this liquid
So its ok … if we make profit
We just sell it to our people
They don't make no fuss
Cause they're so feeble.

And now comes the new invention
The source is shhh ... beyond mention!
All I say is flush the toilet
And you get New Water and there's no need to boil it.

Give me more oh please Mahathir
We don't like to drink the gutter
Or the toilet water, even though its been
Through two filtrations and a UV screen

So its causing a great headache
All the lawyers are in the Hague
Now we're doomed or really are we?
Maybe we should wait and call Badawi.

(lyrics by Cockan Roll, sung to the tune of Allan Sherman’s “Hello Muddah, Hello Faddah” Copyright 1963)
 
How about 'The Ocean' by The Velvet Underground, or the rather good 'Great Waves' by Dirty Three featuring Chan Marshall on vocals, or to further diversify 'Gulf Shores" and 'Ohio River Boat Song' by Will Oldham, or the album 'A River Ain't Too Much To Love' by Smog or 'Tahquamenon Falls'. 'Alanson, Crooked River' or 'Pickerel Lake' off Michigan by Sufjan Stevens...
 
Nobody mentioned the Incredible String Band song 'water' which is about water and what water is:

"Water water see the water flow
Glancing dancing see the water flow
O wizard of changes water water water
Dark or silvery mother of life
Water water holy mystery heavens daughter

God made a song when the world was new
Waters laughter sings it is true
O, wizard of changes, teach me the lesson of flowing"

It's off the Hangman's Beautiful Daughter if your interested
