Lyrics

Verse 1

Woke up with a map drawn on my palm

Three rivers crossed

A crooked little compass in my shoe

The elders said the temple sank

Beneath the reeds

Beneath the rain

Beneath the things we never knew

Pre-Chorus

So I packed a spoon

And a jar of rice

Kissed my mother twice

Told her nothing nice

Chorus

I'm going down to find the mud

The hidden mud

The holy mud

I'm going down to find the mud

Of Hungud

Of Hungud

Post-Chorus

Squelch squelch

Ooh-ooh

Squelch squelch

Ooh

Verse 2

The ferryman had fourteen teeth

He hummed a tune

He hummed it wrong

I paid him with a button and a lie

He pointed west

Then pointed east

Then pointed at the sky

I figured that was fine

Pre-Chorus

The fog rolled in like dough

I lost a boot

I lost my hat

I found a frog that knew the way

Chorus

I'm going down to find the mud

The hidden mud

The holy mud

I'm going down to find the mud

Of Hungud

Of Hungud

Post-Chorus

Squelch squelch

Ooh-ooh

Squelch squelch

Ooh

Bridge

Dig dig dig with a broken stick

Dig dig dig till my fingers sting

Dig dig dig and the walls cave in

And the walls cave in

Chorus

I'm going down to find the mud

The hidden mud

The holy mud

I'm going down to find the mud

Of Hungud

Of Hungud

Post-Chorus

Squelch squelch

Ooh-ooh

Squelch squelch

Ooh

Chorus

The mud was warm

The mud was kind

The mud remembered everything

I knelt right down in the mud

Of Hungud

Of Hungud
