U2 - Mofo Lyrics






lookin' for to save my soul
lookin' in the places where no flowers grow
lookin' for to fill that GOD shaped hole

mother mother sucking rock and roll
(been around the back... been around the front)

holy dunc, spacejunk comin' in for the splash
white dpoes on punk staring into the flash
lookin' for baby Jesus under the trash

mother mother suckin' rock and roll
mother [scat singing] rock and roll

mother am i still your son, you know i've waited for so long to hear you say so
mother you left and made me someone
now i'm still a child but no one tells me no

lookin' for a sound that's gonna drown out the world
lookin' for the father of my two little girls
got the swing got the sway got my straw in lemonade
still looking for the face I had before the world was made

mother mother sucking rock and roll
bubble poppin' sugar droppin' rock and roll
[scat singing]

woo me sister
move me brother
soothe me mother
rule me father
show me mother
days passin
around each other

    My headphones as my plane was gliding above Mexico City waiting for the ok to land ... I can only say I just wanted to jump out and fly my adrenaline was rushing fast!!!

  27. 4.... ....

  47. W.... F....

    WOW WONDERFUL U2!

  48. k.... r....

    What a great opening 🤘

  49. j.... ....

    I have the funky unique looking transparent orange bar coded 2 dvd of the show. One of my favs. The record level on that dvd is the highest I have. Still a good mix. Tough to pull. 720p 3/4 no 16:9 yet back then. 55$ 10 years ago. Worth a look. Its not priceless. But the show is. 2007. If your a true fan, you need it. https://www.discogs.com/U2-Popmart-Live-From-Mexico-City/release/2170957

  50. M.... C....

    This tour was kinda cool for it's "how do we equal or top zoo tv tour" excess but Zooropa was the last record i liked. Still on pop they tried something and they were still relevant. The last time in my opinion they would be. Regardless of the commercial success of ATYCLB and HTDAAB

  51. m.... ....

    Mejores y más emotivos de esta gira, por el contexto y la locación donde por primera vez se presentaron, fueron Santiago de Chile y Sarajevo 🇨🇱 🇧🇦 Uno de ellos debió ser DVD oficial.

  52. b.... ....

    This is how I imagine heaven

  53. s.... e....

    Confirmado oficialmente que este es su concierto favorito de bono

  54. R.... J....

    Looking for a sound that's gonna drown out the world...

  55. e.... ....

    This was a flop!!!

  56. R.... C....

    Quando gli U2 facevano gli U2....

  57. D.... A....

    Thumbs down are from the people who had to take down the stage.

  58. u.... ....

    I always loved this!! :-)!! POP POP POP POP...MUSIC!!

  59. M.... C....

    Love it!
    Incredible awesome!!! 😎

  60. D.... D....

    such good memories!! best ever!! POP MARTE!

  61. W.... D....

    Say what you want about Pop and Pop Mart but it's the most awesome tour opening I ever seen.

  62. c.... ....

    Great show.. saw them in 1997 and it was awesome... but I always ask myself: Did Larry or Adam ever thought "fuck... I just wanna play music and they force me to wear costumes and act like in a fucking theatre" :D

  63. �.... �....

    Этих ребят будет слушать мой сын и его сын тоже

  64. M.... J....

    It's so kitschy and exaggerated, I love it

  65. M.... h....

    Prize fighter Bono was epic Bono.

  66. R.... I....

    2018/05/22))))

  67. A.... c....

    best intro ever!

  68. x.... ....

    The best U2 moment young and big stars they did what they wanted and POP is a masterpiece

  69. B.... ....

    I love Achtung Baby, Zooropa and Pop! My favourite U2 era!

    B.... ....

    Zooropa, Zoo Tv, Pop, dont care for Vertigo or Rattle. But The biggest stage in history 360º! The MTL big O, 75k seats max, 2 nights, high ceiling, was too small. The tower hit the roof. Plan B from scratch in a field. The closed hippodrome. 150k poeple. 2 in 1 one for all. / Where The Streets Have No Names, starts with an explosion, used to be a trade mark. Brightest was in Zooropa/Zoo-Tv. I had a flash for 3 days. Didnt care much. The band did after 25 shows. Fluoride light that goes to 500C and 300k watts lumens in .1 secs. They toned it down for Pop. lol Even for tame U2. Overkill happens.

    B.... ....

    same here. they will never be the same unfortunately...the fly, macphisto. the concept of the zooropa tour was something incredible

    B.... ....

    It was genius, Pop as an album I don't care much for but the tour is amazing, but Achtung and Zooropa had both great albums and tours

    B.... ....

    Forget it after pop

  70. j.... ....

    Definitely one of the best live shows ever!

  71. D.... K....

    Bono you are a rovk tar

  72. m.... b....

    Recordando este concierto nunca lo olvidare sin duda el mejor!💯😚

  73. J.... ....

    Pop is definitely a top 3 record for u2 up there with achtung baby and the Joshua tree. A forgotten master piece indeed.
    Mofo
    If god will send his angels
    If you wear that velvet dress
    Wake up dead man
    Are u2 classics in my opinion

  74. J.... ....

    Mexico Mofo!!!

  75. N.... ....

    Who else could open a show like this? Just off the scale really!

  76. m.... ....

    LIGHTERS. PEOPLE HAVE LIGHTERS.

  77. M.... T....

    Pop sucks

    M.... T....

    Miguel Torres no pop is a masterpiece

  78. d.... ....

    Robin Scott must have made a fortune out of this tour

  79. B.... ....

    First ever concert in Edinburgh and this was it i was about 17.....Fuckin mindblowing opening......SO MUCH ENERGY GOT THROWN TOWARDS YOU WHEN MOFO STARTED.....BEst intro to a concert ever IMO

    B.... ....

    I was there too :)

  80. Z.... F....

    GRANDE BONO IS GOD!

  81. J.... L....

    Instant like

  82. L.... A....

    A truly fascinating spectacle. I saw them on this tour when they played at the Houston Astrodome. Incredible.

  83. L.... ....

    That PopMart DVD was spoiled by the director's use of hazy soft focus filter...wish there was some pin-sharp HD footage of PopMart made available

  84. D.... ....

    20 years later, these guys look like they should be leading the riots in Charlotteville VA, with Donald Trump atop the arch throwing money down on everyone. Now that's what I would call an 'artistic depiction'. LOL

  85. D.... L....

    This is the last album (or performance, really) I liked. Then it got boring.

  86. B.... S....

    My very first concert of U2 i had only 14 years old in Portugal... i still feel goseebumps when i hera them... !

  87. A.... S....

    de los mejores openings de mi historia en conciertos!!!

  88. F.... D....

    the Last great U2 concert tour. They fucking suck now.

  89. s.... s....

    you gotta love bono's energy and silliness

  90. C.... B....

    Para los que estuvimos el 98 en el Nacional, fue un tremendo concierto.

    C.... B....

    Soy fans de u2 y me atrevo a decirte que fue el mejor concierto de u2 en chile e ido a todos sus conciertos en chile menos a ese fue un 11 de febrero de 1998que pena pero me conformo con verlo en youtube definitivamente el mejor concierto de u2 en chile un abrazo amigo

    C.... B....

    +Mario Rojas efectivamente fue uno de los mejores conciertos, pero me hubiese gustado ver el zoo tv por ejemplo, ese sí que fue monstruoso.

  91. J.... H....

    Mexico-fo lol

  92. h.... i....

    México + U2 + Pop album = God Stuff!!!

  93. h.... i....

    Urge el Blu Ray

    h.... i....

    Not possible. Only videoed in standard definition

  94. J.... W....

    Brilliant ! Moving around the stage like guys in their twenties ! ROck on!

  95. i.... m....

    Para los que estuvimos el dia miércoles 3 de dic de 1997 quedara marcado en nuestras mentes ese grandioso concierto. Simplemente el mejor concierto que he vivido!!!!!

    i.... m....

    Seee, fue el primer concierto al que fui solo tenia como 16 años XD

    i.... m....

    Te en vidio mucho soy fan de U2 siempre sueño con ir a un concierto de ellos pero ese en especial ese año del 97 fue increíble me quedé con las ganas de verlos

    i.... m....

    Aún tengo el boleto.

  96. A.... G....

    Some theory says MOFO means: motherfucker. And the title would have been: MTFR
