The black cloud will shroud The multicoloured rainbows - A hard rain is going to fall - The honey bear won't wake From her hibernation, She will dream of placing Her paws into golden beehives.
The swallows will migrate swiftly To African shores of green and blue, They won't be coming back soon.
Our black-cloud sky Will be composed of ravens and crows, Squawking tuneless nocturnes Whilst pecking at our windowpane.
Where are our rainbows? Where is our sunshine? Where have our honey bears And our swallows gone?
