Lyrics
Dreary day, clouds come across the lake
Must be the nimbostratus kind
With its dark and ragged rainy edge
Storm coming up close behind
Here it comes
Ominous change
Feel the shift at the shoreline
Two fronts are going to collide
Air thickens, then it turns real still
As it penetrates deep inside
Here it comes
Ominous change
Undulating cumulonimbus, beware the super cell
Forces far too tumultuous to ever think you know them well
So give it up
Electrical charges build up underground
‘Till it can’t wait no more
The difference too large to be endured
Lightning unleashed from the storm’s core
Here it comes
Ominous change
