Love in the Time of Drought

In plastic fields we lay
sun keeps on shining there ain't no rain
I know I said I'd meet you by the creek
There ain't no flow there must be a leak
Inside my head

This heat makes all souls rise
I can't believe how you have stuck with your lies
All the tongues I hear are always on the loose
While the golden egg keeps searching for the goose

Now let us drain these swimming pools
We've got the wheels
Here come the rules
For this is love in the time of drought
Just kiss my mouth

Big ol cactus answers to no one
While the orphan kids keep banging on their drums
As they march on down the streets
With dust in their eyes they kick the tumbleweed
Straight to hell!

Way up in the sky
Junkyard satellites angels on high
Who keep on filming us unlikely stars
With dried up lips and brains like muscle cars

Now let us drain these swimming pools
We've got the wheels
Here come the rules
For this is love in the time of drought
Just kiss my mouth

Now let us drain these swimming pools
We've got the wheels
Here come the rules
For this is love in the time of drought
Just kiss my mouth
