Melora Creager Sky Is Falling
Two afternoon tornadoes
Where they ripped into a home
The victims believed to be elderly
Their identities unknown
Hundreds were buried today
By a volcano west of here
Oozing mud blocked highways
We all ran in fear
Furniture got broken
You know the passengers started smokin'
All over the world
One man was killed by a falling eucalyptus tree
An utterly horrific scenario
But incredibly - you know
Boulders also crashed into a local country store
Destroying a glass display case
But little more
Catastrophic profounding tragic
Sorrow grief and despair
Get the children out of the house
Close the door and beware
A mountain liquefies
The judgment day draws near
As lava erupts into the sky
As a man shouts
Get out of here!'
A towering bluff breaks off
And then it rumbles down the hill towards town
As another man, not the one from before yells
Hell is comin' down!'
Is this how Armageddon begins?
Is this how it ends?
What we get for our sins?
The sky is falling
Peripatetic combination
Of trees mud sand and snow lie
Crop it down a river
Into the terrified village below
Several horses were drowned
Vehicles crushed
Pin-wheeling through the air like dandelion puff
Is this how Armageddon begins?
Is this how it ends?
What we get for our sins?
The sky is falling
The city had gone back behind an advancing wall of
flames
I cried out
Does anyone know who these dead movie stars are?
Does anyone know their names?'
Violents were pushing others
Up a ravine into the side of the road
Young girls moved all the way up to show
The fuselage was about to explode
The victims they screamed oh they whispered
The paramedic knelt down, then he kissed her
He kidded himself; to be as bad as it seems
With covered bodies from the wreckage from the
mountainous ravine
Look out
Is this how Armageddon begins?
Is this how it ends?
What we get for our sins?
The sky is falling
