lyrics

When The Floodgates Open

When the floodgates open
And the water comes pouring through
Panic descends upon the town

Get your boots on
There's work to be done
But be careful, best not to drown

The walls are overwhelmed
And the bridges are dammed
And traffic cannot get through

When the floodgates open
There will be no more dry land
And the lambs are in trouble, too

Way ahead a helicopter circles and weaves
And the rescue boats bob up and down
When the floodgates open
And the water comes pouring through
Panic descends upon the town

The walls are overwhelmed
And the bridges are dammed
And traffic cannot get through

When the floodgates open
And the water comes pouring through
Panic descends upon the town (and the lambs are in trouble, too)

When the floodgates open
There will be no more dry land
And panic descends upon the town

Get your boots on
There's work to be done
But be careful, not to drown
