lyrics

The North becomes Atlantis
And the South is flyin’ trees
And the West is hidin’ miners
And the East can barely breathe

The peacekeepers they can rally
But they can’t load up enough fire
And the water’s turnin’ orange
While the rivers become wider

The roof is flyin’ over
And the traffic is a show
All along the lake
Even the birds are forced to row

And the houses turn to birthday cakes
So many candles in the wind
While the princes run for cover
And the bloomers they learn to swim

Now the water’s rising
But the sky won’t drink
Yeah the water’s rising

Some can take all the downpour
And waterlog all their dreams
Pull some bait out of the freezer
And wade up right through to the knees

Toss a line into the basement
On a boat from the front door
Then hook a bass
That’s big enough to have a thirteenth floor

Now the water’s rising
But the sky won’t drink
Yeah the water’s rising
