Don't you weep
But I can't help it now
There is nothing as lucky, as easy or free
But don't you weep
There is nothing as lucky, as easy and free
(Don't you weep for them)
Or free, or free, or free
I hear the crowd count down till the bomb gets dropped
I never let it get me down
(Don't you weep for them)
Until we put him in the ground
It blows like arbors through the streets
I never really dreamed of Heaven much
But don't you weep
Of the night sky to infinity
Sometimes I worry that I've lost the plot
Don't you weep
(Don't you weep for them)
To a condo on the coast
There's nothing
(Don't you weep)
Honey, don't you weep
There's nothing
(Don't you weep)
You better shop and eat and procreate
At anything that moves
Listening for patterns in the sound
But it's all I'm doing now
Another century spent pointing guns
(Don't you weep for them)
My twitching muscles tease my flipping thoughts
There is nothing as lucky
Don't you weep
I always figured that there'd be time enough
You got vacation days then you might escape
Of an endless static sea
But we're all planning to meet
There is nothing as lucky
I set my watch to the atomic clock
(Don't you weep)
Honey, don't you weep
I got some friends I barely see
Don't you weep
We'll lay in bags as dead as leaves
There's nothing
All together for eternity
Don't be a criminal in this police state
(Don't you weep)
Looking for faces in the clouds
But once the satellite's deceased
