Something Biblical

Take your apples from the earth

And your fingerlings from the air

If you cried when you were born

'Cause it ain't fair

You got nothing, nothing to wear

And there's a drink that we're all needing

A need to weep but we have tried

And though the clouds we keep on seeding

Still the county remains dry, the county remains dry

The county remains dry

I see your coat, that it needs sewing

And these seeds will sow the corn silk bride

But in your absence nothing's growing

And still the county remains dry, the county remains dry

The county remains dry

Well still we keep on dreaming

Of that fifty-year flood

Of oceans of plasma

And rivers of blood

Take your apples from the earth

And your fingerlings from the air

If you cried when you were born

'Cause it ain't fair

You got nothing, nothing to wear
