SMOKE IN THE SKY © p 2003 CHARLES GOOD WILEY

See the smoke up in the sky, got this burning in my eye.
Weather man says it?s ok gonna live to see another day yeah.
Flashing lights down in the streets telling me that life aint always sweet.
Sirens screaming all through the air reminding me that life?s not always fair.
Crunching sound upon the ground, tell me what?s that suckin sound?
Look for answers can?t be found,
worlds a turning round and round and round round.
How much longer must we pay for the sins our Fathers made?
Waiting for another day to tell us things they forgot to say now.
How much lower can you go?
Corporate thieves a running to and fro yeah what?s the price ya gonna pay for all the things ya gonna loose someday anyway?

Wake me up and put me to bed, work all day to keep myself fed,
I?m running low and don?t you know when I?m through I hope I have a place to go.
A good man living in the streets a bad man sleeps in satin sheets,
I try to help but it seems to me the more things a change the more they stay the same. They say a pill is what you need. Check yourself into therapy.
I say get down on your knees, the Lord above he knows just what you need.
Tell me why that it?s ok, watch your TV all through the day yeah.
Your mind is rotting on the vine get a life while you still have some time.
Gonna end this song and let you go now, one more thing I really have to say yow, open your eyes and you will see past the lies and find yourself reality
yeah hooh hah hooh hah hooh hah
