When The Skies Open Up

[Verse]

It won’t stop raining in this Far North town,
The sky’s relentless, pouring down.
Our lawns have turned into a shallow lake,
The barbeque’s drenched, there's nothing to bake.

[Chorus]

Oh, when the skies open up and flood the land,
It feels like Noah’s calling, understand.
The pool’s overflowed, and the garden’s drowned,
In this soaked, small country town.

[Verse 2]

The gutters are groaning under the weight,
The garden's all washed out, met its fate.
It's pissing down, every drop's a curse,
As floodwaters rise, it can't get much worse.

[Chorus]

Oh, when the skies open up and flood the land,
It feels like Noah’s calling, understand.
The pool’s overflowed, and the garden’s drowned,
In this soaked, small country town.

[Verse 3]

The cows are standing on higher ground,
Seeking refuge from the rain around.
The kangaroos seek shelter too,
In flood-swept fields, there's nothing to do.

[Chorus]

Oh, when the skies open up and flood the land,
It feels like Noah’s calling, understand.
The pool’s overflowed, and the garden’s drowned,
In this soaked, small country town.
