"Sinkhole" (written by W.J. Hersh)
Well it's sundown in the sinkhole
It's sunrise up on the hill The thieves are sleeping in Hades' palm And they're keeping very still It's summer in Winter Haven And the Earth, she's caving in There's no water on the land And it's all because of sin May Rose Owens lost her bedroom When the porches all fell in Guy Legard kissed his yard goodbye And it's all because of sin No one must be told About this thieving in the night Satan stole the landscape It was gone with the morning light And it's sundown in the sinkhole It's sunrise up on the hill The thieves are sleeping in Hades' palm And they're keeping very still It's summer in Winter Haven And the Earth, she's caving in There's no water on the land And it's all because of sin Seven recreational vehicles buried underground Seven cranes went after them Six could not be found A Porsche and half a swimming pool are lost, I am afeared The seventh crane approached the hole, Then it disappeared And it's sundown in the sinkhole It's sunrise up on the hill The thieves are sleeping in Hades' palm And they're keeping very still It's summer in Winter Haven And the Earth, she's caving in There's no water on the land And it's all because of sin Saint Augustine in his slumber Feels the depths of his own soul Saint Bernadette in her vision Feels her body beyond control The flowers of Narcissus Are nailed to the underworld door And Hades has the medicine That he keeps down on the floor And it's sundown in the sinkhole It's sunrise up on the hill The thieves are sleeping in Hades' palm And they're keeping very still It's summer in Winter Haven And the Earth, she's caving in There's no water on the land And it's all because of sin
