the riscuers - landslides lyrics
[intro]
[verse 1]
movement of rocks from up the hill
down onto the earth, falling as we feel
it’s got a term; we call it “mass wasting”
“landslide” for short, you know what it is, ay!
sliding down the slopes: rocks and debris
gravity’s at fault for such happenings
as well as earthquakes and rainfall
better watch out, they might just fall
(falling, sliding, toppling
spreading, flowing
sudden movement)
[verse 2]
in the event of a “slide,” what could anyone do
drop, cover, and hold—those mainly are the rules
and once your gut says “, it’s about to happen”
oughtta tell your neighbors something’s going down
call the police, public works, fire department
if outside, steer away from the occurrence and tall things too
stay clear of the embankments
pavements might just go off and collapse and
[chorus]
soil, rocks, and debris downhill
put every heart to a standstill
landslides are approaching
you better go get somewhere safer
a house of brick’s a house of cards
once stable ground starts falling apart
dragging to h+ll all that’s there
[verse 3]
science says signs are the following:
landscape changes
doors or windows jamming for the first time and
trees leaning progressively like the pisa
hear some rumbling sound or knocking bouldaz?
underground utility lines break
when the soil’s cake
fissures in foundations and plaster and tile and brick
fences, retaining walls, and utility poles
impose a danger when seen at an angle
[verse 4]
and obviously, you would see cracks in the ground
no “safe+and+sound”
so you better open eyes—look around you
it’s ‘bout time to tell you what to do after
it’s died down
gather around like a campfire
watch out for the flood and the injured
listen to the news
go to designated public shelters if you’re told to
evacuate
check foundations and chimneys
surrounding land too
better safe than sorry
[chorus]
soil, rocks, and debris downhill
put every heart to a standstill
landslides are approaching
(ooh+oh+ooh)
we better go get somewhere safer
a house of brick’s a house of cards
(a house of brick’s [a] house of cards)
once stable ground starts falling apart
dragging to h+ll all that’s there
(the+eh+eh+eh+ere)
[outro]
falling, sliding, toppling
spreading, flowing
they are moving
soil, rocks, and debris
what is happening?
land is sliding
falling, sliding, toppling
spreading, flowing
they are moving
soil, rocks, and debris
what is happening?
land is sliding
