Approaching Storm

I watch you on the radar

I wonder what you'll bring

A thunderclap so bold and loud

The birds just will not sing?

I see the reds and yellows

As increasingly you draw near

You'll rain on my parade today

You'll cause my kitty fear

But once you pass the denizens

Of my long time now home town

The smiles will appear again

There will be no more frown

So do your worst approaching storm

Show me what you got

Disrupt my TV signal

And cool off the hot

I see you getting closer

throughout the afternoon

I know when you are done and gone

A new tune I will croon
