Adrian Belew Bumpity Bump Lyrics

Bumpity Bump Lyrics

What`s a blue man gonna do
when he collects the whole set of the blues
he can`t move,
he can`t shake his slump
a blue man says bumpity bump
Hey, bumpity bump
my heart hurts like a drum
What`s a man,
what`s a blue man gonna do
when he knows the truth of the blues
he can`t find the world a satisfyin` place
he can`t even face his own face
Why do I hurt like a drum?
my heart says bumpity bump
A blue man
what`s 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, what`s a blue man say
when he`s got to wake up
to another blue day
Oh, and nothing is right
and he`s 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
