And after the dam broke,
the floodwaters had stayed for far too long
And after all the trees choked,
the air soon became invaded by silence's song
Afterwards, almost everyone rowed to the shore for eggs & meat
but some weren't opposed to running through the silt in bare feet
Of course, raft prices rose as time floated by
And at those times, fists were shaken at the sky
No one really thought of fixing the dam
Most felt a need, a want, a desire to express
thoughts about the recent water-ways jam
They were those kind of people,
you can always tell by their dress
They all used to meet at their tarnished steeple,
only until the "blessed" water drowned it within a day
They're the ones who organized the water-ways,
They're the ones who proclaim all about "this" and "that"
Lots of people just air-quoted the word crap
Lots of people just hated the traffic conditions
A few insurgents even planned the ever popular MISSION
They had wild ideas about augmenting the lunar phase,
hoping it would help with the sewage problem in "The Lays"
Others wanted gates that came with special keys
Oh,they laughed: "We won't let rafters through, not with a please!"
But a Judas had drifted into their ranks,
he had his raft tied to a stump down by the south banks
And when the moon was golden, he showed his Nature
He blew a clarion and giggled when he ran out the house
Loud clankings were heard, the insurgents were confused, to be sure
the Judas quietly rows to the seas, heart racing like a mouse
Hero to The Rafters, listen to what the consequences were:
Gates with special keys had been installed around "The Lays",
The blessed water had no other place it'd rather be,
The Rafters all laughed as they skipped the water with special keys
