"It's Not Too Late" 1992 Written by Burnett, Elvis Costello and Bob Neuwirth
The wind turns like a daggerThe rain falls like a hammerThe sky has grown darkBut it's not too late
The weather crashes downWhat's lost cannot be foundThe night is closingBut it's not too late
It's not too lateIt's not too lateIt's not too lateIt's not too lateThe atmosphere is lethalBut I will fear no evil
The ocean rolls like thunderThe tempest pulls us underThe dogs are howlingBut it's not too late
As broken structures rustFalse idols turn to dustAll lies in ashesAnd it's not too late
It's not too lateIt's not too lateIt's not too lateIt's not too lateThe atmosphere is lethalBut I will fear no evil
In the dark before the dawnThe echo of the siren's songDies away like a ghostAs the day breaks
It's not too lateIt's not too lateIt's not too lateIt's not too lateThe atmosphere is lethalBut I will fear no evil
Extraordinarily prescient for 1992 as we are experiencing in 2023 what may be the beginning of a climate apocalypse. Meanwhile the world's leadership, greedy and beholding to Big Business donors, waffle, deny, lie and ignore with lethal cruelty upon the masses.
I think to save one's sanity, enjoy what's left while one can. It's only going to get worse.
