Lyrics It's A-Coming - Natalie Merchant

It's A-Coming

It’s a-coming
Wild fires, dying leaves (?)
Landslides, hurricanes
Apocalypse in store like nothing ever seen before
It’s a-coming
Third generation refugees (?)
Take my burning effigies (?)
Revolution, civil war
Like nothing ever seen before
Yeah, it’s a-coming
Pale, lost and ----
Wasted by the morning sun
Tell the ---- he can see (?)
It’s a-coming
It’s gonna come
Jungle slashed and jungle burned
Monkeys and the painted birds
---- ---- whole world grieve
It’s a-coming
All the ones that fail to thrive (?)
Starve down and burn alive (?)
Something evil, something ----
Calamity
It’s gonna come
---- ---- the old Cold War
Atom Bomb’s gonna settle the score
You wait and see
It’s a long time coming
But it’s a-coming
It’s gonna come
Third generation refugees (?)
Take my burning effigies (?)
Revolution, civil war, like
Like nothing ever seen before
Like nothing ever seen before
