Lightning |
There’s a funny lightning |
Threatening with striking |
But it moves too quick for a picture |
There’s a funny lightning |
'Round the corner hiding |
But I’m too smart just to catch it |
With gloves and rubber |
So I stay put right here |
Watching the sky for tears |
Let the fools and cowboys roar to wrecks |
But if I should wake up and find my home’s in half |
Who is it? |
Blame nature, I guess I have to laugh |
And if I should wake up and find my bed has moved |
Six inches, six closer to the west |
But this funny lightning |
I wanna invite in |
If I could learn how to teach it |
I salt the corners of |
My room because, because |
A ghost can never be too careful |
And if I should wake up and find my home’s in half? |
Who did it? |
Oh nature, I hope you have a laugh |
And if I should wake up and find my bed has moved |
Twelve inches, twelve closer to my god |
Whip crash there’s a flash and I’m back to wanting more |
The crack is movin' up the wall |
Whip crash there’s flash and I’m back to wanting more |
I can’t help thinking this is war |
