Still Floating

Going under
Is it any wonder

[Verse 1]
The state is still floating
The water so high
Only choice is boating
Or to fly

[Bridge]
The days go by
Yet, we can’t get dry

[Chorus]
Brazil, still, under water
More than a week and still the havoc
Send in god’s blotter
The state of the state — a wreck

[Instrumental, Sub-bass, Berimbau, Atabaque Drum, Pandeiro]

[Verse 2]
Inundated, shouldn’t have waited
Confessing it’s distressing
Inundated, isolated
More storms on the way
Will we last another day

[Bridge]
The days go by
Yet, we can’t get dry

[Chorus]
Brazil, still, under water
More than a week and still the havoc
Send in god’s blotter
The state of the state — a wreck

[Instrumental, Sub-bass, Berimbau, Atabaque Drum, Pandeiro]

[Verse 3]
The state is still floating
The only access there, by air
Recovery after discovery
Of land (Do you understand?)

[Bridge]
The days go by
Yet, we can’t get dry

[Chorus]
Brazil, still, under water
More than a week and still the havoc
Send in god’s blotter
The state of the state — a wreck

[End]

A SCIENCE NOTE
On May 10, 2024, when a representative of Brazil’s Rio Grande do Sul was asked about “recovery” after weeks of historic flooding, she responded, “The state is still floating.”
