Big Storm Comin’

Buffett can’t reason with the hurricane season,
But I got no reason to try
The Gov’ner & Mayor are both on the air
They’re sayin’ “get out now or you’ll die.”

A hurricane wind is blowin’ hard, houses are fallin’ down
The boats out at sea are safe as can be, but I’m still hangin’ around.
Here on my island, chained myself to a pilein’
A fishin’ pole clutched in my hand.
The sky’s bright with lightnin’, the fish they ain’t bitin’
That’s somethin’ I can’t understand.

Buffett can’t reason with the hurricane season,
But I got no reason to try
The Gov’ner & Mayor are both on the air
Sayin’ “get the hell out, or you’ll die.”

It’s getting dark as hell, sea’s comin’ over the wall,
There goes my new bride, floatin’ off on the tide.
I’m still tied to my dock, so I don’t need a clock.
I’ve got time to kill. Should’a climbed the hill.

Buffett can’t reason with the hurricane season,
But I got no reason to try
The Gov’ner & Mayor are both on the air
Sayin’, “get out now, or you’ll die.”

This Big Storm is gonna blow away
But I’m just gonna drink and play.
We’ve got plenty of rum,
So let the Big Storm come.
While the wind’s still blowin’ outside
I’m not gonna run and hide, run and hide.

Buffett can’t reason with the hurricane season,
But I got no reason to try
The Gov’ner & Mayor are both on the air
Sayin’, “get out now, or you’ll die.”

Well, Jimmy can’t reason with the hurricane season,
Neither can I, you should know.
Gonna crank up the blender and go on a bender
At least I’m not ass deep in snow.
