Lyrics

I cried the other day,
When I looked in the mirror,
For I found a gray hair hiding in my beard.
I called him out, and yelled,
?what are you doing here!??

Well he?s whispering, he?s talking to his friends.
He?s inciting, rabble rousing, he?s laying plans.
He?ll lead little white robes marching to their promised land.

Things are bad, and they?re only getting worse.
Sky?s gonna fall, and it?ll hit me first.
Move over friend,
Go fishing take hike,
And don?t try to tell me everything will be all right.
I?m gonna dig me a hole,
And there I?ll stay,
Until the judgment day.

The debt collector,
He knocked on my door,
He took all the trinkets
That I?d bought at the store.
He ripped the clothes right off my back,
Said, ?Jack, you won?t need these any more,?

He left me naked, swinging in the breeze,
Like a monkey, I was hiding up in the trees,
Was either that or beg and borrow on my knees.

Oh things are bad, and they?re only getting worse,
Sky?s gonna fall, it?ll hit me first.
Move over friend, yeah buzz off, fly away,
And don?t try to convince me that I?m gonna be ok.
I?m gonna hide in a cave,
And there I?ll stay,
Until the judgment day.

The President?s lying.
Then he always was,
But he?s not even trying
To hide the things he does,
I said, ?I don?t know who you work for,
But it sure ain?t us.?

I thought I?d oust him at the next election,
But was told that votes are now just suggestions.
I?m assured he?ll take mine under careful consideration

Oh things are bad, and they?re only getting worse,
Sky will fall, it?s gonna hit me first.
Move over friend, yeah lay off, leave me be,
I don?t want to hold my head up, practice yoga, hug a tree,
I?m crawling under a rock,
And there I?ll stay,
Until the judgment day.
