The Lyrics
Since flood tides and hurricanes
Sadly we roam
Through the waste and the rubble
That is no place like home
The stench stings our eyes
And the mold makes us swear
Lord, just grant us the strength
And the grit to be there..
Home, home, No Sweet Home
There's no place like home
There's no place like home
The timbers and stones
Were yesterdays piled
Into bulldozer mem'ries
When levees went wild
Water marks on the walls
And an X on the door
Our dog is still missing
His chain's on the floor..
Home, home, where's sweet home/
There's no place like home
There's no place like home
That favorite old phrase
Now, seems somehow in vain
A home is your castle
This ain't much like Spain
No green grass is growing
No songbirds to call
First Katrina, then Rita
Now, there's nothing at all..
Home, home, No Sweet Home
There's no place like home
This is no place like home..
Sadly we roam
Through the waste and the rubble
That is no place like home
The stench stings our eyes
And the mold makes us swear
Lord, just grant us the strength
And the grit to be there..
Home, home, No Sweet Home
There's no place like home
There's no place like home
The timbers and stones
Were yesterdays piled
Into bulldozer mem'ries
When levees went wild
Water marks on the walls
And an X on the door
Our dog is still missing
His chain's on the floor..
Home, home, where's sweet home/
There's no place like home
There's no place like home
That favorite old phrase
Now, seems somehow in vain
A home is your castle
This ain't much like Spain
No green grass is growing
No songbirds to call
First Katrina, then Rita
Now, there's nothing at all..
Home, home, No Sweet Home
There's no place like home
This is no place like home..

Thoughtful, well-crafted parody, AFW. 555
bittersweet...i like it...5s

Many thanks, Kristof, alvin, and carol
