What can I tell you? What can I say?
I really wish the news was better.
The truth has been written, filed away
and buried like a dead letter.
But my uneasy prophesies continue to amass.
I take no measure of pleasure as they come to pass.
You can all wait for stars to align
and planets to enter their houses
before you decide on changing your minds
and getting up off your couches.
If my outrage was contagious you would be making
the things that hurt you a virtue and suffer their meaning.
Forecast of the weather, by joints that swell in pain,
that fail their use but never go wrong about the rain.
What's your aim? Use your heart. Where's your brain?
The human race can be so lame.
They give up being wise to be clever.
I really wish the news was better.
Forecast of weather.
A little too rash, a little too brash,
a little too quick to excuse it,
a little too loud, a little too proud,
a little too much party music
to hear the very small canary deep inside the mine
with emphysema, whispering to seek and ye shall find.
Don't leave your umbrella behind.
Forecast of the weather, by joints that swell in vain,
that fail their use but never go wrong about the rain.
What's your aim? Use your heart. Where's your brain?
The human race is so insane
they give up being wise to be clever.
I really wish the news was better.
Forecast of the weather.
