Mudslide Songtext
von Bob Geldof

Dark days, they come without saying anything
Rising round your head like unwanted flies
One day I′ll get it together and buy one
Of those electric blue fly killer things
Mount it on the kitchen wall over
There and watch them fry, wouldn't you?
Watch them die, couldn′t you?
Pass the time, shouldn't you?
Didn't you?

Baby, baby, love falls away
Floats away
Melts into the April air
Summer′s coming
I caught it on the hill
Overripe already
Still unfulfilled, wouldn′t you?
Unfulfilled, couldn't you?
Still, I′m still, shouldn't you?
Didn′t you?


Here we all are, sitting on a mudslide
Are you on my side?
Or are you on the other side, side?
Here we all are, standing in a minefield
How does your mind feel?
Standing in my field
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Hey Adrian, I've been dreaming of deserts again
Crocodiles and weeping children passing slow into the sky
Their eyes the only source of water for two thousand miles

What does it all mean?
I wake up and I sweat the night
And everything′s so dusty
So empty
So arid, wouldn't you?
So dry, couldn't you?
But you did, didn′t you?
Didn′t you?

Here we all are, sitting on a mudslide
Are you on my side?
Or are you on the other side, side?
Here we all are, standing in a minefield
How does your mind feel?
Standing in my field

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah


Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh yeah
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
