Laurie Anderson - Muddy River lyrics

Houses are cracking. People drown.

Cars are rusting here. A church floats by

Washed in the blood of the lamb.

And all the superhighways have disappeared

One by one. And all the towns and cities and signs

Are underwater now. They're gone.

We're going down by the muddy river

We're walking down by the muddy river

Somebody tell me please

What happened here?

Mud is everywhere.

Fish are swimming in the fields.

Everybody's running around, they're yelling

Is this the end of the known world?

Men and women in their boats

Try to save what they've lost.

They're yelling, It's all gone now.

We're never gonna find it again.

But when the muddy river starts to rise

It covers us all. And when I look into your eyes

Two tiny clocks two crystal balls

We begin again. We try.

We begin again. Down by.

We're going down by the muddy river.

We begin again down by the muddy river.

We're walking down by down by the muddy river.

We're going down by down by the muddy river
