Lyrics: Oh Katrina, please don't blow me down Oh Katrina, please don't come to town I got a family of four and I've seen it all before I don't need your trouble comin over to my door We saw it on the show when the governor said go but we had no way to go cause we're old and weak and poor So no
w your stingin' bitin' wind its a burnin' on my skin and I lost the grippin' hand of my surely dead best friend Well we thought we were OK until the levee gave away so now we're wadin' through each day prayin' a chopper'll come our way Now the city's all shut down house parts scattered round there
ain't enough sandbags can be found to keep the lake from runnin' a ground So now the sun has said good night while the looters bring the fright theives
junkies, rape
blight
lawless judgement homeless fight
Freighters crashin' in from the sea left for dead neck deep in toxic flood debris water's still a risin' down on Bourbon St. world watchin' helpless on the color TV Thousands stranded wavin' babies rooftops survivors are hoping they find 'em a good cop before the skeeters breed the coming death p
ox
the August sun bakes
blisters 'em red hot
What will we take away as a lesson from this day mans plans will fade away when nature's course is surely laid Should we trust in our own might as the ocean temps they rise or should we seek and strive and try to consume less with our lives It's three days on and we're feelin' spent thousands of
poor ones in their very last minute but the national guard and the money's all spent Marine One overhead with an empty President Where's the water, the food
the rescue men
in the desert over yonder cause a veto pen
set us up for disaster we're spread way too thin
if you really understand Mr. Bush "do something" then
This catastrophic trauma keeps right on unfoldin' mothers cry in vain dead babies a holdin' football games commercials keep 'em goin' economy priority shameless destroyer Where's the relief for the poor on the street they're stranded in a war-zone with nothin' to eat as the bourgoise pigs all cle
an and discreet disguise their disgust with their see-through sympathy The poor city Mayor frustrated is cryin' while the Feds wait around the helpless are dyin' interviews and press conference satellite lyin'
the bullshit's a flowin' from the treasonous scion
This schizophrenic country its a hurtin' and cryin' the party-line jargon we gotta stop buyin' if our leaders let us down with their half-ass tryin' the next thing you know its you and me dyin'
