Guest Starring Hannah Lansburgh

lyrics

A heavy roller
lightning and power
rolled by past my house last night.

Called my mother
called my father,
prayed that someone'd call the cops
thumbs placed to ears
it's probably just the railroad track

You say you lead me to drink
and I can smell your stink,
but let's get things in order
if you touch my daughter

Give you reasons to drink.
Lord I'll make you smarter.
Lead your horse to sink
like a lamb to slaughter.

No need to be strong,
no need to fear.
No milk is lost
after spilled tears.
No need to cry,
no need to be warned.
This is the calm,
After the storm.

A heavy rainstorm,
lightning and power,
came down on my house last night.

Flooding rooms breaking:
windows, locks, bureaus, ovens,
Leaving no corner untouched,
as if searching for something.

We're hear to serve and protect you
make lies against you.
You don't have a clue,
we're rubber you are glue.

You'll spend time in our box,
you gotta hide it better than in your sox yeah!
We don't loose because we make the rules.
We don't loose because

we have no need to be strong.
No need to fear
No milk is lost
after spilled tears.
No need to cry,
no need to be warned.
Please remain calm.
This is a storm.

Heavy roller finds a sharp corner,
slips his tracks, and it is all over
town
they speak of your glory,
but there are few lips that'll speak the true story.
And the rain may wash us away.
And the rain might wash us away,
but I have.

we have no need to be strong.
No need to fear
No milk is lost
after spilled tears.
No need to cry, or be warned.
This is the calm,
After the storm.
