/ Sands o. Time

Wouldn't you rather have it this way

As the earth folds forward

Cast backward we are

A new day

Missiles that keep the peace

Creep up on us

And surpass the place of disease

Who's in a writing mood these days

Thank ole Eli Lilly

And starring upward, one could see

Time before hand

And the sun, it's hotter now

So much safer 50 years ago,

How do you know?

Born in '77

All of this C14 dates you well

And to a bead of glass we will become

From the sand and dust before

Caskets keep us from returning,

But you know the end will come soon

As the blood moon rises overhead

The timeless chant resounds

"Aren’t the Russians our friends now?"

But it wasn't like that centuries ago

For we felt what we feel now

And the blankets kept them warm

Only to wake up itching
