Seed Song
John Darnielle
[Verse 1]
The rain didn't come for one calendar year
So when the man with the sunflower seeds in his hand came here
[Refrain]
We sent him away, we sent him away
[Verse 2]
The rain didn't come for twelve months more
So when the man with the seed catalogs darkened our door
[Refrain]
We sent him away, we sent him away
We sent him away, we sent him away
[Verse 3]
And I know you're waiting for the ironic ending
And I know you're waiting for the punchline
And I know you're waiting for the rain to come by
[Outro]
So am I, so am I
So am I, so am I
