I Am the Mud

Wise man dragging his heels down a country road
£2.50 eggs from the village toad
I see you stripping chickens at the village fete
15 feathers slip into your pillowcase

Well, my hands (your hands)
My Hands
Your hands around my body (your body)
My dirty lizard-body.
My hands (your hands)
My Hands
Your hands around my body (your body)
My dirty lizard-body

So,
I am the fat of the land
I am the modern scarecrow
I am Jacques Dutronc
I Am The Mud

16 backs will bend to build my effigy
Finish soon or be punished
I'll send a fifth of leprosy
I have mud (I have mud)
I have mud to replace my face
I want it done quicker, I want it done quick
I want it done by the end of the day.

Well, my hands (your hands)
My Hands
Your hands around my body (your body)
My dirty lizard-body
My hands (your hands)
My Hands
Your hands around my body (your body)
My dirty lizard-body

So,
I am the country man.
I am the village voyeur
I am Jacques Dutronc
I am Donovan

I Am The Mud
I Am The Mud
I Am The Mud
I Am The Mud

I Am Donovan
I Am Donovan
I Am Donovan
I Am Donovan
