MUSIC FOR EARLY SPRING IN FUBARLAND

 

Gillian Welch Winter's Come and Gone-1998

Oh little red birdCome to my window sillBeen so lonesomeShaking that morning chillOh little red birdOpen your mouth and sayBeen so lonesomeJust about flown away
 
So long now I've been out In the rain and snowBut winter's come and goneA little bird told me so
 
Oh little blue birdPearly feather breastFive cold nickels' all I got leftOh little blue birdWhat am I gonna doFive cold nickelsAin't gonna see me through
 
So long now I've been out In the rain and snowBut winter's come and goneA little bird told me so 

Oh little black birdOn my wire lineDark as troubleIn this heart of minePoor little black birdSings a worried songDark as trouble'Til winter's come and gone
 
So long now I've been out In the rain and snowBut winter's come and goneA little bird told me so
 
So long now I've been out In the rain and snowBut winter's come and goneA little bird told me so

Democracy's lament


 T Bone Burnett It's Not Too Late 1992

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
