The Ship - Tornado lyrics

Well, I'm lying here on the island, scared to go outside Well, you can buy me a fare on the subway darling, I'll watch the train go by I'm dying here on the island, but it's the only place in town I better take it on back to Illinois and watch the tornado go around and around Tornado began, listen to the weatherman Tornado—what a treat, if it touches down across the street Tornado—when it blows, you just can't beat a tornado! You can count up all your disasters, well you know you don't want to boast But pick up the Times on Sunday morning and see who's got the most The trouble's not in your bathroom, you know it's out on the town You better take it on back to the prairie land, and watch the tornado go around and around Tornado began, listen to the weatherman Tornado—what a treat, if it touches down across the street Tornado—when it blows, you just can't beat a tornado! You leave town by Saturday morning, you'll be home by Sunday noon You can't turn your gaze behind you, ‘cause you'll never be immune Well, prepare for the sweet surrender, when you yield in a cornfield Tell me where did it go? You leave town by Saturday morning, you'll be home by Sunday noon You can't turn your gaze behind you, ‘cause you'll never be immune Well, prepare for the sweet surrender, when you yield in a cornfield Tell me where did it go? Tornado began, listen to the weatherman Tornado—what a treat, if it touches down across the street Tornado—when it blows, you just can't beat a tornado! You leave town by Saturday morning, you'll be home by Sunday noon You can't turn your gaze behind you, ‘cause you'll never be immune Well, prepare for the sweet surrender, when you yield in a cornfield Tell me where did it go? Tornado began, listen to the weatherman Tornado—what a treat, if it touches down across the street Tornado—when it blows, you just can't beat a tornado!
