Muddy Town

Another day of joy
As the rain pours down
The sun will shine another day
Upon this muddy town

Muddy streets to walk on
And muddy pools of brown
Spotting up the landscape
Within this muddy town

Muddy splatters on the walls
Of buildings large and small
Windows streaked with muddy smears
Is nothing to enthrall

And as the rain is falling down
In plodding drips and drops
On streets and homes and parking lots
On muddy parks and shops

Till all the world
Is muddy brown
The poor sad fate
Of muddy town
