歌词
I was born by the river
Learned how to read the weather
Listened to the old folk stories
How once in a lifetime
The floodplains would flow like spilled wine
Turning to an inland sea
And I see a storm brewing
Bringing flood and ruin
Once again to this country
The water keeps on rising
Spreading up to the far horizons
About as far as I can see
That was then and this is now
The world is changing and how?
It's not the same as before
The future's knocking at your door
Our homes are steeped in mud
And our stores are bordered up
Our town is drowning in debris
Don't come down from the hill
Shaking hands and say yours well
'Cause we need more than sympathy
This is happening right now
The world is changing and how?
You've heard the warnings before
But that was something you ignored
Our world's turned upside down
We will rebuild this town
'Cause this is our community
Let's just get one thing straight
Time to cut the bullshit red tape
We don't need bureaucracy
This is happening right now
The world is changing and how?
You hold the answer in your hands
What is it you don't understand?
That was then, but this is now
The world is changing and how
It's not the same as before
The future's knocking at your door
