It's the worst that it's been since

the last time it happened

in front of our eyes

wild speculation

Tall tales and hearsay and

absolute lies

Been passed off as factual

when actually, the actual

blockin' the way

Keeping us all from enjoyin'

our evening

Shoving its roots through

Til we come in to town in

a stark ravin' anger
G D
Looking for answers and armed

to the teeth?

How many, you reckon, would it be,

four or five?
