Ray Hedgpeth - Seismograph lyrics

Seismograph [Robotic voice] Deep beneath the surface Where tectonic plates collide The crust is slowly shifting From the heat on the inside [Pre-Chorus] Here come the P-waves Here come the S-waves Here come the surface waves Oh no What's that? Did you feel that? [Chorus] Well it's an EARTHQUAKE! (and the seismic waves are moving) Well it's an EARTHQUAKE! (the clock is falling off the mantel) Well it's an EARTHQUAKE! (just stay calm, try to relax As the seismologists keep track As it scratches on the seismograph) [Rap-Solo] The earth's rocky crust Is broken into plates They're moving all the time But at a very slow rate Convection currents from Deep in the mantle Push on the crust Till it's hard to handle But every now and then The plates get stuck And the pressure builds up And the pressure builds up [Verse] The pressure builds up Year after year Till the pressure's so strong Something's got to give Then the plates finally slip And the energy's released And the ground begins to shake Right beneath your feet [Pre-Chorus] Here come the P-waves Here come the S-waves Here come the surface waves Oh no What's that? Did you feel that? [Chorus] Well it's an EARTHQUAKE! (and the seismic waves are moving) Well it's an EARTHQUAKE! (the clock is falling off the mantel) Well it's an EARTHQUAKE! (just stay calm, try to relax As the seismologists keep track As it scratches on the seismograph)
