Tom Glazer - The Hurricane Song lyrics

Artist: Tom Glazer

album: Weather Songs (from Ballads for the Age of Science)


A hurricane by any name
Still remains a hurricane
Betty, Cora, Ester, Jane
It's the same old hurricane
They get started
In the tropics
In the ocean
Far from land
Through the summer
Tropic sunlight
Heats the water
There's no breeze
Air and water
Both get warmer
They get warmer
Day by day
Then the cool air
Starts a breeze there
Hurricane is
On it's way
Warm air funnels
Inward, upward
Moving at in-
Creasing speed
Vapor cools
And condenses
Then the heavy
Clouds are formed
Clouds condensing
Heats the air and
Makes the air rise,
Higher still
Wind increases
Spirals inward
And the rain comes
Pouring down
Winds are raging
As the air mass
Slowly moves a-
Cross the sea
Edges toward the
Coastal regions
Whipping waves up
Crazily
Though its eye is
Calm and gentle
It's as wild as
It can be
Hurricane hits
By the city
In its wake is
Tragedy
