Nil's first entry, July 2000. Lyric written at Charlie's Tavern in Amherst, MA while some laundry dried next door at the Speed Wash.

lyrics

Flood victim!

Got my high-waters on,
gonna wade through the depths
until the morning comes.

Flood victim!

There's water on the floor,
and the level keeps rising
like the tide at the shore.

Flood victim!

When will it stop?
My sump pump's broken,
and I ain't got no mop.

Flood victim!

Situation is bleak,
got an ocean of trouble
'cause my dishwasher leaks.

I'm floating away,
drowning in my beer.

Flood victim!

Got my high-waters on,
gonna wade through the depths
until the morning comes.

Flood victim!

Soaked to the bone,
pour me a double
I ain't got no home.

I'm floating away,
drowning in my beer.
