Lyrics

Herbert had a dream
the world was closing in
His wife was leaving him
for his younger brother Tim
He tossed and he turned
'til the tears started to churn
and rivers quickly formed
while the room began to flood
Leaking like a sieve
the walls began to give
the neighbors clung to trees
while Herbert's tears rolled through the streets
The mayor tried to think
"We must wake Herbert from his sleep
Tell his wife we need her now!"
And Doris swam quickly through town
pleading
"Sweet Herbert dear, we're drowning
please stop crying I'm right here
you're covering the world up with your tears
Hurry Herbert wake
before we're washed away"
The town began to sink
but Herbert never blinked
The army called for help
but the waters rose to quick
The Mayor grabbed his gun
"Something drastic must be done
We'll shoot him in his sleep!"
and Dorris dropped down to her knees pleading
"Sweet Herbert dear, we're drowning
please stop crying I'm right here
you're covering the world up with your tears
Hurry Herbert wake
before I'm washed away"
