The hole (Unlucky 7)


Behind the house the ground has opened up,
And it's so deep

And there's a pact we've made
If one should fall
The other follows in

We started small, trash and rotten food,
And then the neighbors came
With cars and sofas too
And soon the government had midnight dumps
Of what we never knew

From clear around the globe
It said "We hope that you're the ones
On the other end of the hole
Could you take a few things back?
Our country is getting full"

Behind the house, the ground has opened up
