Mudslide

(album: Last Of Our Kind - 2015)

This ain't no double entendre
This ain't no euphemism
This is real life
I'm describing a natural disaster
Mud flow...

Land mass shifting beneath our feet
Houses, floating on down the street
Debris, wreck and ruin
Bobbing along like butter would not melt
Deluge never ending
And the raindrops never cease to pelt

Mudslide
It's hard to see the upside of a Mudslide
I simply can't abide this deadly Mudslide
Way down deep inside I hate you
Mudslide

Neighbours thus far I have managed to avoid
Flounder as they're drawn
Deep down into the watery void
Gesticulating wildly,
But it's awkward so I wave ta-ta
The distant cries of anguish
Play havoc with my Cha Cha

Mudslide
It's hard to see the upside of a Mudslide
I simply can't abide this deadly Mudslide
Way down deep inside I hate you
Mudslide

Somewhere under the mudflow
Way down low there lies
My dear beloved gazebo

Mudslide
It's hard to see the upside of a Mudslide
I simply can't abide this deadly Mudslide
Way down deep inside I hate you
Mudslide

Do you know what this is?
It's a fucking mudslide.
