DO OVER (January 14)
(with apologies to Bob Dylan)
We’re in pain, more loss than gain, our future’s past
It was fun, a real good run, it could not last
Our time is up, the piper must be paid
Though we stall, it can not be de-layed
Trump or not, there is no other way,
it’s all over, so long USA
It's not im-mi-grants, un-i-ons or mi-nor-it-ies
It's not im-mi-grants, un-i-ons or mi-nor-it-ies
Too late, an-y-ways, t’ change pri-or-it-ies
It isn't Bi-bles . . . Je-sus, it ain’t guns
It’s about what natch-er-ly comes
Countries rise and fall, that's hist'ry's way
And the time is up, so good-bye, USA
All mission’ries and sci-en-tists and so-cial-ists
All mission’ries and sci-en-tists and so-cial-ists
claimin’ t' have answers . . . they are useless pests
Climate change, en-vir-on-ment collapse
These are facts, there is no per-haps
We've taken ev'rything Earth had to give
And it’s all over now, Western Civ
Leave the stepping stones behind there's something that calls for you
Leave the stepping stones behind there's something that calls for you
All the debts we've left, they are now coming due
The vag-a-bonds now at our border door
are standing in the clothes that we once wore
Drill an-oth-er well, that’s all we do
We're so over now, Red, White and Blue
