Calamity Land

lyrics

They say that to the victor go the spoils
But, what happens when the superpowers run out of oil?

They're selling maps to Calamity Land
Which helped me find my old watch, but I still haven't found the hands

Pull the seats out the back of the van
Pump your tires, hop in, and cruise out as fast as you can

Can you canoe through a blizzard whiteout?
People try it… Let's right the bow!

I thought by now that we should've been further down
That lonesome road

Your life is a mystery story line.
When will we find the next clue?

They make a living snapping telephone poles
But, the pay's not enough to make it all worth my time

They found the blackbox filled with yesterday's lies
But once they cracked the code, a melancholy story unfolds

Croc tears come from alligator eyes
So, you'd better hype up or soon we will all fall down

Those cats put a lot of garbage out there…
And, people buy it! We wonder how?

I thought by now that we should've been further down
That lonesome road

Your life is a mystery story line.
When will we find the next clue?

The shape of the land will change in time
Where will we find what we choose?

What happens when the water's like gold?
There's a drain on the lake, now the bottom becomes the top.

Tragic car crash in a sinkhole swarm
When the rain was too much, the ambulance siren wouldn't sound.

Chose the right path, but we took it at the wrong time.
Let's take a new look, cause it looks like the map has changed.

They're bringing lawn chairs to the 4 alarm fire
Now, nothing is left…it all came down.

I thought by now that we should've been further down
That lonesome road

Your life is a mystery story line.
When will we find the next clue?

Too large to take in at one time,
Space awaits to vanish the view.
