Woke last morning to the light of the dawn
But when I rolled over, my lover was gone!
There was a heap of debris, that was left in her place
And a crude stench… was wafting out of its’ face

There was a foul wind blowing, out of the south
A gross front… gusting out of its’ mouth
High pressure… for a brush floss and rinse
As it lifted out and passed me... I could not but wince!

As she drifted back in, all pretty and fresh
There was tectonic motion deep within my own flesh
And she lay down beside me
But it triggered landslides inside
It was silent but deadly…
A sneak attack from my behind

There was a foul wind blowing, out of the north
A gross front… bellowing forth
Low pressure in our brains, as we held in our breath
To do less… would have meant certain death

Foul Wind! Foul Wind!
Foul Wind! Foul Wind!

Now when you go courting keep this tale in your mind
‘Cause your eyes may be deaf, but your nose isn’t blind
And that lining of silver, may conceal a dark cloud
May your weather be fair…
And your thunder not loud.

Foul Wind! Foul Wind!
Foul Wind! Foul Wind!
Foul Wind! Foul Wind!
