Hey, you may just have the San Francisco Earthquake (and Fire) Blues:
Give me serpentinite
or give me chert
Slab on the Franciscan melange
Really make it hurt:
‘Cause it’s 1906 people
The earthquake’s overdue…
I got them tumbling blues
Of San Francisco for you
Churn up the underground
Where the subductions’ at
Rumble the strike/slip fault
Shake that habitat
Been waiting 28 million years
I’m one impatient cat-
It’s 1906 baby…
The earthquake’s overdue
Don’t get caught horizontal, people
San Francisco Earthquake is coming after you
Earthquake don’t care if you build a mansion -or occupy a flat
Earthquake don’t respect if you’re a
A GOP or Democrat
Earthquake couldn’t care less if you’re Caruso
or you sing for pennies in a hat
-Its five am baby
The earthquake’s shaking you
You got those rollin’ tumbling-over
San Francisco 1906 Earthquake Blues
Give us a little uplift
Before you let us down
Tear up all the pavements
Of this two-bit gold rush town
Knockin’ San Francisco
Right off the continental shelf
Hope there’s nuthin’ breakable
While mother earth rearranges herself
It’s the San Andreas Fault, people
Comin’ after you
If your house is rockin’ like a cradle
You got them good old San Francisco 1906 Earthquake (and Fire)
Blues…..
