Bumpity Bump — текст песни (Adrian Belew)

Whats a blue man gonna do

When he collects the whole set of the blues

He cant move,

He cant shake his slump

A blue man says bumpity bump



Hey, bumpity bump

My heart hurts like a drum



Whats a man,

Whats a blue man gonna do

When he knows the truth of the blues

He cant find the world a satisfyin place

He cant even face his own face



Why do I hurt like a drum?

My heart says bumpity bump



A blue man

Whats he got to do,

Go to sleep to evade the blues?

They might follow him right into his dreams

They might corner him and make him scream



Why do I feel like a bomb?

My heart says bumpity bump



Hey, whats a blue man say

When hes got to wake up

To another blue day

Oh, and nothing is right

And hes got no disguise

Who knows, maybe he woke up

In a different guy



Why do I feel like a bomb?

My heart hurts like a drum, why?

My heart says bumpity bump
