A Very Merry Un-Dry Day To You!

There was a flood in my town
My Town My Town
It was a grand flood in my town
My Town My Town

Five feet of water in the basement just for me
You see... because

There was a flood in my town
My Town My Town!

The people are not happy in
My Town! My Town!
The people are all angry in
My Town! My Town!

They're shouting at the mini lakes
Which used to be their yardssssss
Because it really really flooded in...

My Town!! My Town!!

Our neighbor lost his yard to
The big big lakes
It floated all the new grass
And all his stakes
He has to travel five blocks to find
To fiiiind
Just where all that water has left his yard
Behinddddddd

My boyfriend is still at
Wal-Mart Wal-Mart
His ruined guitar hero is breaking
His Heart! His Heart!
He works in the subway which consequently flood

Because our draining really sucks
In My Town! My Town!!

(Oh sing along!)

There was a flood in my town
My Town! My Town!
It was quite a grand flood in
My Town! My Town!

All the little children woke up suddenly find
That all the toys had floated and left them behind!

The flood was quite a problem in
My Town! My Town!
It caused a lot of people
Big frowns big frowns

Some guy is angry because he's got fourteen inches now
And he's unhappily shouting I hate
My Town! My Town!!

We're not used to water in
My Town! My Town!
We like our little droughts in
My Town! My Town!

All our fields are gone right now
They’re underneath our lakes
The good news is we won't be needing
Our rakes! Our rakes!

I’m going to end this song now about
Our town! Our town!
I have to help out
Around around

In the Corn Belt it's better not to expect the unexpected
Because our land looked at the water and it was
Rejected! Rejected!

So if you travel right now to
My Town! My Town!
Remember your poncho and
Don't Frown! Don't Frown!

A Very Un-Merry wet time in
My Town! My Town!
But that’s okay because we’ll still all love our little town
Next week we’ll laughing about the new record in
Our Town! Our Town!
