Let's not talk about the rain
The next world war is waging.
This globe's really beginning to cook.
A flood is rising to claim us.
The old messiah is coming
but it's only to take a peek.
There's not much we can say or do
to change the fate of tides.
So baby, while the ground's still dry
and before the dirt's awash
let us take our fingers
off the windowpane
and wrap them till they knot.
