The water came and took the street
it flooded the basement where I kept my books I hoped I'd read.
And it filled the house with rubble and mud,
and it smashed all the windows and took all my clothes and tore them apart.

So all is gone in a blink in a minute.
I used to have home but now I have none.
It seemed so undone. Now it's done.
Can you believe it? I used to have something but now it's gone...

Then came the wind and took the roof.
It started to suck all the things from inside and it made the walls move.
And it took the house, took it up to clouds
where it whirled and span and went upside down before it hit the ground.

So all is gone in a blink in a minute.
I used to have home but now I have none.
It seemed so undone. Now it's done.
Can you believe it? I used to have something but now it's gone.
