Do you get the feeling
That we are so deep in it
That there is no way out
But a big blow-out?

Do you get the feeling
That the Dems and Repubs
Are so deep in it
That there is no way out
But the big cop-out?



Do you get the feeling
That the war is so deep in it
That there is no way out
But the big bug-out?

Do you get the feeling
That the banks are so deep in it
That there is no way out
But the big bottom drop-out?

Do you get the feeling
That the planet is so deep in it
That there is no way out
But the big burn-out?

Do you get the feeling
That we are so deep in it
That there is no way out
But the big blow-out?

Do you get the feeling?

What I'm Feelin'

I'm weighted with the feelin'

Of cities and towns ablazin';

Of the whole of the country reelin'

And all of Hell araisin'.

 

But the deepest dread I feel

Is what our sons and daughters will do

When ordered to aim, shoot, kill

Their countrymen__and brother, sister, father, mother, too.
