My House On Charlotte Street Washed Away
Played to the tune of "My Oklahoma home", by Bruce Springsteen.
when my gDreat aunt Jean died
it was Gher house that I Deyed
moved my stuff in almost straight Aaway
I put Ddown new fancy floors
and Gpainted walls and Ddoors
making the Aplace mine to Dstay.
it washed Gaway
it washed Daway
my house on Charlotte street it washed aAway
seDwage came up the drain
'cause there Gwas a bit of Drain
and the pump station wasn't Aturned on anyDway
I had lDots of dear things there
Mr Ginsurance man I Dswear
those 16 play-stations are deAstroyed
and that Dantique Toby jug
not to Gmention my cashmereD rug
and even all my Adoggies little Dtoys
they washed Gaway
they washed Daway
everything that I held dAear
the Dfloors have started lifting
and I Gneed a brand new Dkitchen
and lots of Febreeze to make the Abad smell disapDpear
well I Dmoved to higher ground
with what Gsalvage I had Dfound
just this guitar and my dog popApy
and I Dwrote down this hear song
because the Gdays are awful lDong
when all your stuff has been Awashed out to Dsea
it washed Gaway
it washed Daway
because of the bloody waterA-board
I spenDd my time driving round
stickGing to higherD ground
I think I saw my house Afloat past GreeDnore
this has Dhappened thrice before
and I'm Gsure it will happen Dmore
I've photos taken so the damage can beA seen
I'mD going to sue the board
and Gwith my nice reDward
I might just buy myAself a submaDrine
