lyrics

Let’s hope the ropes stay tight and the poles keep some structure, the canvas can do its job, and hold out some water, the river can keep its banks and the clouds their thunder, the mountain can keep its feet while we’re under cover

Here in Tent City, we’ll survive God-awful storms, we’ll get inside our tents and get it on

Thank God we brought the thermal vest, we packed the stove, we brought the four-season bags and left the beach clothes all at home, we bought a tape-seamed tent that survives Antarctic winters
Thank God, from experience we know it’s barely ever Summer time round here

In Tent City, we’ll survive God-awful storms, we’ll get inside our tents and get it on

The storm raged for 40 days and nights
Good job we pitched up the slope – when the rain comes down it will not drown us
Thank God, we wore winter coats – when the ice age comes it will not freeze us
Torrential rain and hurricanes

All of the ropes went slack and the poles all lost their shape
Off went the canvas, oh, it left us to the mercy of the rain
And when the river burst its banks all of us got washed away
