We are in drought The poster said I'll wash myself With sand instead Drink only blood Throw plants away Once withered in The cruel sun's rays
We are in drought So says the news No hosepipes, sprinklers Save the blue For only those Important things Cleansing feet Of Stars and Kings
We are in drought The people say Don't throw your Dirty bowl away Save the water Save the rain Cut your shower Plug the drain
We are in drought Or so I've heard The lakes are dust The rivers dry The cities baked A sand filled kiln Dust beneath A hard, clear sky
We are in drought Apparently So tell me this Why does it seem That every time I leave the house I'm sodden through Both in and out
