If nature sold herself on layaway with a little down
I would be the first in line to buy myself a sound
A waterfall, a tidal wave or a beating of the drums
A heavy wind, a thunder or a falling of the leaves

And I would proclaim, I'm the new proprietor of a sound
In a press conference held downtown when the people would look at me
In this state I would simply tell them this
At least you'll have someone to blame for ruining your weekend

I would play Mother Nature unease my sound at will
No more sitting and waiting on this quite window sill
If I feel like love I will shake the trees
If I'm consumed in loneliness then I will drop the leaves

And I would proclaim, I'm the new proprietor of a sound
In a press conference held downtown when the people would look at me
In this state I would simply say outright
At least you have someone to blame for scaring the children in the night

What if I call for a waterfall some light rain
And some other owner calls for a massive hurricane
We'd have to be responsible users and respect the rules of God
I'll just take a load off and have to buy them all

And I would proclaim, I'm the new proprietor of a sound
In a press conference held downtown when the people would look at me
In this state I would, I would simply say
At least you have someone to blame for a near perfect day

I would proclaim, I'm the new proprietor of a sound
In a press conference held downtown when the people would look at me
In this state I would, I would simply say
At least you have someone to blame
