Katrina
How can you do this to me?
I've seen her being washed off to sea
I need her
but she needed oxygen to breathe
And I don't need to have been there
to know he's a tough one to reach
Believers
raise your hands
you'll have turned around by tomorrow
If you'd seen what I've seen
you'd never question my sorrow
In no time
I'm up to my neck in your filth
I won't climb
'cause the levee was never even built
I don't mind drinking the milk that you've spilled
'cause I've lost mine
and all I need is courage and a quilt
Believers
raise your hands
you'll have turned around by tomorrow
If you'd seen what I've seen
you'd never question my sorrow
Believers
turn around!
You'll be safe and sound by tomorrow
If you'd seen what I've seen
you'd never question my sorrow
