Flood of Emotion

Here we are constructing barriers
If we had more helpers
We'd insure this won't destroy
Life for the little girls and boys
Why'd it have to cause all this damage
now all we can do is rummage
to see what has survived again
This has happened before
Back then we built drains
With all this water comes more chores
We have to grab our wet vacs and mops
All the water brings a flood of emotions
Stuff that's been buried down comes up
Set them aside and go through the motions
Because mother nature doesn't care
If you shed any tears
She just wants to ruin your life
For you, your children and your wife
Stand strong and show her you don't mind
Just do the job that you're assigned
