Mudpie Songtext
Nothing but a mudpie
Wrapped up inside with a pretty bow.
Nothing but a castle built on top of a swamp of quicksand
And inside these cardboard walls and saran wrap windows
Lies a rustly pot of fool's gold
That you got with your life.
You thought you'd take a bad bet on loyalty,
You thought you'd tell yourself to act like royalty,
Until the day you became his prey
As you tripped over your red carpet.
You wash your hair in melaleuca oil,
Then you wrap your head up with tin foil
And prance around in your bathroom,
Pretending you're a king.

But you're spinning hard,
Sinking faster now.

yeah you can follow your rainbows - and I will follow the sun now - wherever he goes it's - not too far to run - so I will follow the sun - yeah you can follow your rainbows - and I will follow the sun now - wherever he goes it's - not too far to run - so I will follow the sun

Well you can follow your rainbows
And I will follow the sun now.
Wherever he goes
It's not too far to run,
So I will follow the sun,
Follow the sun.

Nothing but a calendar hanging on your wall
That's 23 years old.
Nothing but a for sale sign on a house
That's already sold.
Trying to chew through that
Chocolate covered barbed wire
'Cause there's among the beautiful filth
Waiting for you on the other side.

But you're spinning hard,
Sinking faster now.

Well you can follow your rainbows
And I will follow the sun now.
Wherever he goes
It's not too far to run,
So I will follow the sun,
Follow the sun.

Clever lives end up rusty and forgotten.
Brilliant minds end up with Alzheimer's.
What I thought was so deep ended up so hollow
And what I thought had meaning
Ended up so shallow.

Yeah, you can follow your rainbows
And I will follow the sun now.
Wherever he goes
It's not too far to run,
So I will follow the sun.
Yeah, you can follow your rainbows
And I will follow the sun now.
Wherever he goes
It's not too far to run,
So I will follow the sun.
