Watching The Western Sky

LIKE A TRAIN IT COMES ROARING IN
WREAKING HAVOC WHEREVER IT LANDS
KILLING, MAIMING, DESTROYING LIVES
FOLLOWING AN INCREDIBLY DEVIOUS PLAN

SOME SAY IT’S THE DEVIL’S HANDIWORK
HE AND MOTHER NATURE PLAN IT ALL
OTHERS SAY THAT IT’S GOD’S DOING
END TIME SIGNS BEFORE TRUMPET’S CALL

REGARDLESS OF WHO’S FAULT IT IS
IF BLAME CAN BE PLACED AT ALL
WHEN THE SIRENS WAIL, PLEASE BEWARE
WHETHER AT HOME OR AT THE MALL

WHEN THE SKY TURNS A SICKLY GREEN
AND HAILSTORMS CARPET THE STREET
ABRUPTLY EVERYTHING GOES SILENT
THE MONSTER YOU’RE ABOUT TO MEET

THIS BEAST IS NO RESPECTER  OF PERSONS
NURSING HOME, HOSPITAL OR SCHOOL
IT WILL SHRED, BLOW AWAY, OBLITERATE
USING ITS POWER AS A DEADLY TOOL

WHY TORNADOES HAPPEN, I DON’T KNOW
THEIR AFTERMATH WILL MAKE YOU CRY
THE ONLY THING THAT YOU CAN DO
IN THE SPRING WATCH IS THE WESTERN SKY
