Jeremiah Blues (Part 1) |
It was midnight, midnight at noon |
Everyone talked in rhyme |
Everyone saw the big clock tickin', |
Nobody knew, nobody knew the time |
Elegant débutantes smiled |
Everyone fought for dimes |
Newspapers screamed for blood |
It was the best of times |
Every place around the world, it seemed the same |
Can’t hear the rhythm for the drums |
Everybody wants to look the other way |
When something wicked this way comes |
Sometimes they tie a thief to the tree |
Sometimes I stare, sometimes it’s me Everyone told the truth |
All that we heard were lies |
A Pope claimed that he’d been wrong in the past |
This was a big surprise |
Nobody knew the time |
Everyone fell in love |
A Cardinal’s wife was jailed |
The government saved a dying planet |
When popular icons failed |
Every place around the world it seemed the same |
Can’t hear the rhythm for the drums |
Everybody wants to look the other way |
When something wicked this way comes |
Sometimes they tie a thief to the tree |
Sometimes I stare, sometimes it’s me Sometimes I stare, sometimes it’s me |
