This bamboo won't stay in the yard
And this yard won't stay out of the ravine
And this ravine is hungry enough
To put the neighborhood in the sea
And this sea doesn't question what it takes
And these fish take whatever they can get
And had the captain known then he could
Probably have prevented it
The news casts love to show the little girl
And the girl always wanted to be on TV
And the microphones are vacuum hoses-
Waiting for tears from the family
And some ears know how not to listen
Like tinted glass they can pick and choose
Between that which will only sting and
That which is soft enough to let through
And staying small is always easy
Is easiness not what we want?
I see we lay ourselves all down
For someone to put the parking lots on
And maybe the big guys really are evil but
That same evil lines you and me
And a hot enough flame in any mans hand will
Still burn down the city
How we love to look for clues and
Pick out who is mostly to blame
And how we rally up and hang our
weights and debts upon their names
And feeling like we've always been cheated
And cursing the sun when the ice cube melts
And being the poor little lady on the train tracks is
So much easier than anything else
It's so much easier than anything else
So much easier than anything else
So much easier than anything-
Else.
