Waiting For The Cloud
The river was rainbow stew The fishes choked and cursed The thirsty dogs spat fire Rolled in glue, then they burst The fur balls flying, trees were dying Dandelions were crippled, bald. . . We saw it all in colour Now we're waiting for the cloud A mother forcefed baby milk Which ticked and bubbled black She sank it back with plastic pills Although it stank. . . seemed thankful Rolled up in her sack She won't be back She won't grow old. . . We saw it all in colour Now we're waiting for the cloud And crocodiles were sprouting wings Dead sheep filled the fields The children rode on locusts And threw slings at anything That could be killed and eaten raw No weeping sore, no claws, no balls. . . We saw it all in colour Letras de cancionesNow we're waiting for the cloud We're told it could be 15 days We're busy digging holes The deep ones for the pure selected Shallow ones for old and sick The derelicts, the poor The junkies, criminals, the whores There's more, there's red and yellow Black and blue There's me, there's you (Waiting for the cloud) From Letras Mania
