Come on, bring me a flood
Come on, bring me a code red warning
My baby and me need a tragedy
And I'll go over to his house
And ask him for candles
The power's out in this town
He'll welcome me in
From the cold, from the rain
We'll tell all the stories we've been saving
Come on, bring me a flood
Come on, bring me a code red warning
My baby and me need a tragedy
He'll come to the hospital
They'll know he's the one to call
He'll say, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, baby, for it all"
He'll stay by my bedside
Holding my hand all night
Talking just to keep me alive
Come on, bring me a flood
Come on, bring me a code red warning
My baby and me need a tragedy
I can't believe I'd wish for so much suffering
But it's better than this nothing
Bring me anything, oh,
To get my baby and me together again
Come on, bring me a code red warning
My baby and me need a tragedy
And I'll go over to his house
And ask him for candles
The power's out in this town
He'll welcome me in
From the cold, from the rain
We'll tell all the stories we've been saving
Come on, bring me a flood
Come on, bring me a code red warning
My baby and me need a tragedy
He'll come to the hospital
They'll know he's the one to call
He'll say, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, baby, for it all"
He'll stay by my bedside
Holding my hand all night
Talking just to keep me alive
Come on, bring me a flood
Come on, bring me a code red warning
My baby and me need a tragedy
I can't believe I'd wish for so much suffering
But it's better than this nothing
Bring me anything, oh,
To get my baby and me together again
