It's A-Coming

It’s a-coming
Wild fires, dying lakes
Landslides, hurricanes
Apocalypse in store
Like nothing ever seen before
It’s a-coming
Third-generation refugees
Street mob burning effigies
Revolution, civil war
Like nothing ever seen before
It’s a-coming
Pale-horse rider come
Blistered by the morning sun
Tell about what he can see
Crystal ball of mercury
It’s a-coming
It’s gonna come
Jungle slashed and jungle burned
The monkeys and the painted birds
Climb the vines, the limbs and leaves
The lungs that let the whole world breathe
It’s a-coming
All the ones that failed to thrive
Starved out and buried alive
Something evil, something free
Calamity
It’s gonna come
Space Race, the old Cold War
Atom bomb was gonna settle the score
You wait and see.
It’s a long time coming
But it’s a-coming
It’s gonna come
Third-generation refugees
Street mob burning effigies
Revolution, civil war
Like nothing ever seen before
Like nothing ever seen before
