A blue marble. it falls from the clouds
Comin on down it fights out loud
Tiny soldiers washed out at sea
Can you hear me? ANYONE PLEASE!
No reconcile; no gift, only denial
Stuck alone in a dry desert, the Nile

Bombs they shake the oceans, ruin the meadows
Hearts are torn, can we count the carnage?
there's a child, dying mother in his arms
"we only wanted freedom and what did it bring?"
A question resonating among the dusty and dry
I guess the answer was written by that guy
its uh... "blowin' in the wind"
yeah, that's right, "blowin in the wind"

Shaking and devastating, it rings in our ears
"OH, NO THAT WAS LONG AGO, 36 YEARS!"
We wanted a revolution but it only brang tears
Just like the time Nixon put it in gear
But its the future and things have changed
ME? I'd say half of the C's are deranged

I love this place, All of the U S of A
But democracy? I'd say it's on delay
So Spite me, you may even want to fight
However, as of right now, the future isn't

LOOKING THAT BRIGHT!

You're right, we're half as free now as we were before the "revolution"....and we were half as free then, as we'd been three decades before.

Worse, we've done it to ourselves, revolution by revolution, turn by turn, and all with the best of intentions.
