Caesar Samayoa - Blankets and Bedding lyrics

[Janice](Spoken) 11:53 am [Company](Spoken) Tuesday! [Janice](Spoken) September 11th, 2001. Any available community buildings Will be converted into shelters With thousands of pa**engers arriving at any minute The town is asking for help with- Well, anything you can do [Beulah] Christ, I saw on the news That they're looking for blankets and bedding And maybe some food [Ganderian Woman 1] Do you know what they need And how much? [Ganderian Woman 2] I need something to do [Female Company] 'Cause I can't watch the news anymore [Annette] Can I help? Is there something I need to do something To keep me from thinking of All of those scenes on the tube [Ganderian Woman 1] I need something to do 'Cause I can't watch the news [Female Company] No I can't watch the news anymore In the winter From the water Through the wind If a stranger ends up at your door [Beulah] You get on a horn! (Spoken) Hello, this is Beulah Davis down at the Academy I heard we might be getting some guests And I thought I'd see if I could help who's ever in charge in getting the school organised How many pa**engers can we take? Oh well we fit about 400 students- Yes we could probably do 600 Or sure 700 if we really pack 'em in When are they coming? Could be anytime now? Well I'm glad I phoned [Oz](Spoken) I get a call from Beulah Looking for anything 700 people From around the world might need So, I go down to shoppers and the manager says To just take what I want off the shelves Toothbrushes, floss, mouthwash, deodorant And I'm back at the school when Beulah says: [Beulah](Spoken) You know those planes probably got some babies on 'em [Oz](Spoken) So I'm back to shoppers for diapers And we're unpacking 'em when Annette says: [Annette](Spoken) You know those babies are probably gonna be hungry [Oz](Spoken) So I'm back to shoppers for formula and baby food And when I get back Beulah says: [Beulah](Spoken) You know those planes are probably filled with women of childbearing age [Oz](Spoken) So... [Beulah](Spoken) So I'm back to shoppers To pick up as many pads and tampons as they have [Janice](Spoken) The Baptist church needs a hand moving their pews Doctor O'Brien down at the pharmacy Is ready to fill any prescriptions Oh, and the Lions Club is looking for some toilet paper If you have any extra [Female Company] Medicine Toothpaste Underwear Aspirin Jackets our kids grew out of last summer [Janice] And down at the station We're taking donations Out by the door [Female Company] Holy Jesus, there's more! [Annette] It's better than being at home alone Wondering what's really happening [Beulah] Everyone's phoning! [Female Company] We're setting up rooms in the schools [Beulah] Been crying all afternoon Wondering what could be done! [Male Company] What do we need? [Annette](Spoken) I made a tray of sandwiches [Beulah](Spoken) We need 50 more [Annette](Spoken) Sandwiches? [Beulah](Spoken) Trays! [Male Company] What do we need? [Ganderian Man](Spoken) 200 gym mats. Is that enough? [Beulah](Spoken) You tell me and we'll both know [Male Company] What do we need? [Janice] For the love of God stop bring toilet paper to the Lions Club! [Male Company] How do you know what you need When you don't know how many You're needing to feed When you don't know how many are staying How long they are staying We better start praying the weather stays nice [Female Company] In the winter From the water (Through the wind) In the winter From the water (Through the wind) In the winter From the water (Through the wind) [Company] In the winter From the water If a stranger ends up sent by fate [Annette](Spoken) Are we gonna be ready? [Beulah](Spoken) Well. We have to be. Don't we?
