Florida Vacation

In Florida, where old people go to die With a population of less than one and counting Where glaciers crawl along the seashore down Growing cold and counting down the hours Melting down is very nice and even nicer When vacationing in Florida The volcanoes of Florida are world renowned Standing taller than Olympus Mons on Mars Some spewing ash and lightning ever faster By morning life will pass the test of time Lava flows fill in the desert canyons slow Miami mountains rise higher than the Rockies Filling in the missing pieces of a happy sky At midnight Tsunamis wash away the sands Landscapes are soon to follow Twisted storms just like before turn south Earthquakes keep to themselves but louder Taking down the house to leave a porch While rocking on a wooden chair out back You hear the sounds of crowds or is it birds While opening a beer you feel the sun come out
