"Mudslide" lyrics - THE DARKNESS

THE DARKNESS
"Mudslide"
(Emily Dolan Davies / Dan Hawkins)

[Intro:]
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

[Chorus:]
(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
Mudslide

Neighbors, 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"
And the distant cries of anguish play havoc while I Cha-Cha

[Chorus:]
(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
Mudslide

[Bridge:]
Somewhere, under the mud flow
Way down, low
There lies my dear, beloved gazebo

[Chorus:]
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

[Outro:]
Do you know what this is?
It's a fucking mudslide

It's hard to see the upside in a mudslide
Oh, this deadly mudslide
Way down, deep inside, I hate you, mudslide
Mudslide
