River Isn't Rising - Cabin

The river isn’t rising

It grinds the shore

The river boat’s arriving

Mind the store

They’re coming for the rich folk in your town

So quick to stick a pitchfork in your mouth

Foundation needs replacing

And I should know

We’re still working from the basement of ancient Rome

Appreciate your patients

Awaken from your nap

Then rise to the occasion that fell into your lap

But we’re so tired

And we’re so lost

We’ll only slow you down

We’ll only throw you off

The river isn’t rising behind the storm

We take them by surprise

But it takes too long

Hooray for your achievements

You’ve earned our praise

Now go work out the demons from the hell you’ve raised

But we’re so tired

And we’re so lost

We’ll only slow you down

We’ll only throw you off
