[Chorus 1]

[Lateef:]

Rivetin' worldwinds rippin' the world 

women and children wait a minute we're all in jeapordy [x2]



[Chorus 2: said along with chorus 1 repeat x1]

The rains incessant prattle rides restless in the saddle, 

a land of a million horses power trotting to the pattern



The rains incessant prattle 

marches on & on & on & on & on & on & on &on



[Lateef]

It began at sea

Three cross currents concurrently

Creating the mother of all tempests to be

Enter percipitation and Ioniozation

The cloud cover hovered 'round ten thousand feet

They sent it swiftly to meet 

The oceans waves peaks

Along the jet stream 

Bars of fog sparkin', rollin, and pourin

Needles of rain

Thunderin' like god bowlin' lane



[Lyrics Born]

Crashing and Clapping

The master craftsman passionately 

Expressing his anger as angst

And flashes of rain

Insanity and fascinating

Irrationally lashing out

Fashioning from his magesic means

Patters and waves

Gravity couldn't tame

Battering seas with scenes

The skies were stained 

With the light white panes 

of lightening veins

By the grey clouds

With grey silk ingrained



Devastatin' [x2]



Devastation [x1]



[Lateef]

The Baltic, Bulboous ,Cumlous

looked more like swabs of cottoon in a charcoal dip

Stretched across all four tips of the horizion

Yet it's movement was swift

But there seemed to be a shift

The squall paused

With an oddness and stillness that felt

....Ominous



[Lryrics Born]

Now if the storm was the servant

And near the earths surface

the congregation was stirrin', nervous, swervin'

like a burnin' furnace yearnin'

It was churnin', peturbed

And quite determined to be heard

[Begin alt w/Lateef]

so the ocean floor burst

The earthquake merged

And formed a network of cooridors

Which made the earth porous

The forch surged forth

The surf roared

And the stormin surf above

It assumed the same course

Now the rain poured water

And the basin toward corners

And they both aimed toward the northern Califorina Shores

And as the wind whispered warning 

The ground hinted authority

The long shoremen lean 

Foreward oars

Lower corner

It's quadruples in proportion

He was floored 

By his formal introduction to the force!



Devastatin'!



Riveting whirlwinds [Chorus x3] 

at the same time Rains incessant pattern [Chorus x4]



[Lyrics Born]

That afternoon the appatite of the catasrophe beast cooled

Began by snackin' on the panoramic view

Population of people 

Every single house was feeble 

In the eye of mouth of the storm

The needle of the richtor scale teeterd and trembled

So beautifully warm, Picturesque

Hail shot through the window ceil 

The glass splinters sailed

Through the innards 

Of little Children

Waitin for dinner

They entered and exited

The earth split like god flesh

And them engulfed two whole blocks

The roofs blew off like screw off tops

The school of the arts, the schooner docks

Plus huge supermarkets

and all its human contents

Uprooted and scooped on top 

Like Duplo blocks

Now few alive to announce

the true accounts what really amounts

To rumor mills spouted huge amounts and dollar damage

The doom, the trials, the tribulations

Who can do with out the balance between life and total devastation



[Lateef]

Everything aroound you shakin'

And you quakin'

And you feel the rockin of the foundation

Is made a slave to vibration

Then down you go 

Your minds been slow 

Around you so

Dishes flying out of the kitchen cabinet do'(door)

A few crashin' when they smashin' the windows

Thats when you recognize isn't just the terror in your eyes

or the fear between your ears

It's the thunderin' and the rumblin'

Is it over you're now wonderin'

That's when the telephone poll

rips through the roof

And adds the wide stake to your livin' room 

Natures heavy burden is now pass along to you

Your house heaves and pulls 

You watch the house next door 

swallowed by a sinkhole

It's outta coontrol,  whoa!



Rivetin' worldwinds rippin the world, 

women and children wait a minute were all in jeapordy [x2]

The wind brought the rain, the rain cleared the lane, 

and still made room for more rockin'

The quake shook the state, the state took the bait, 

and sank, and still made room for more rockin [echos]



[Alt w/Lateef, begin Lyrics Born]

It's like the bible says

The Final days

the tidal wave

The earth to quake

The storm to raise

Simultaneously

Smack the land mass 

bordering 

Cal-i-for-ni-a

The pourin' rain 

The Smoke and flame

The earth a gaping opening

From growin' pains

Broken main regurgatitin'

Automatin' 

Pain

You're off and daughter screams in vain

The black became a rectangular lake

Some people greivin', neighborhoods that hydroplane

Heaven heavin', kept repeatin'

Passenger and everybody try to escape 

on half a tank

hearts palpitate

valves breakin

Cal state 

Fault line

Open wide 

Ya fall flyin'

Clothesline

(??) car

Blindsided by a semi

fallin'

cascadin'

golden gate

girders

following you

spiraling down the hemmoraging falls



Devastatin! [x1]

Devastatin! [x1]
