  • Build an ark head for the open water
    Save your sons and your daughters
    Build an ark

    Build an ark when the storm is ended
    You'll know the world has been mended
    Build an ark

    I'm tired of all the villains
    Tired of all the killin's
    Tired of the men who make the laws
    And break them any time they please
    I'm tired of all the big lies
    Where are all the good guys?
    Sometimes I swear I feel the way
    That Noah did when the lord commanded

    Build an ark head for the open water
    Save your sons and your daughters
    Build an ark

    Build an ark when the storm is ended
    You'll know the world has been mended
    Build an ark

    My father and my mother
    My sisters and my brothers
    All of the friends that I care about
    And the woman that I've learned to love
    I'll gather them together promise them forever
    We'll be safe from the world around us
    All we have to do is to love each other

    Build an ark head for the open water
    Save your sons and your daughters
    Build an ark

    Build an ark when the storm is ended
    You'll know the world has been mended
    Build an ark

    Let's gather them together promise them forever
    We'll be safe from the world around us
    All we have to do is to love each other

    Build an ark you got to head for the open water
    Save your sons and your daughters
    Build an ark

    Build an ark when the storm is ended
    You'll know the world has been mended
    Build an ark

    Build an ark head for the open water
    Save your sons and your daughters
    Build an ark

    Build an ark when the storm is ended
    You'll know the world has been mended
