High Tide
Henri Grünbauer
We were asked the Bank had it organised
Us 54 To walk the dried up sea
We were late cause some carkeys in the trunk
But there’ still time our guide agreed
R.: You didn’t expect it, high tides
And There seems no escape
when it comes from all sides
My life passing before my eyes like a movie
Killing me
Killing you
Killing all
Speaking of a guide he couldn’t talk himself
Low tide was low, high tide extremely high
One of us with a problem in the heart
The fog came up to take away our sight
R.: You didn’t expect it, high tides
And There seems no escape
when it comes from all sides
My life passing before my eyes like a movie
Gunshot heard
Far away
In the north
Water flows
East to west
You’ll get lost
At sea
It came from the left, the right and us
We gave up running and started clowning
A history teacher recognized the military plane
Which led the choppers to save us from drowning
Resque me
Resque you
Resque all
R.: You didn’t expect it, high tides
And There seems no escape
when it comes from all sides
My life passing before my eyes like a movie
Some of us
Taking eggs
For souvenir
