Lyrics
FUNNY KIND OF DAY
When this cruel world is finished with hostility
And all that's left are kindness and humility
And greed has had its' fill. Completely!
I wonder then, if we'll fulfil our destiny
Our hearts and minds in all of their complexity
Will unify in one, quite freely.
It's been a funny kind of day
Where you contemplate what might have been,
And the thought won't go away
There's something hidden that you should have seen
You know it's there, you can feel the call
An itch inside that drives you up the wall!
When this wild world is eaten by humanity
And all that's left are desert sands and gravity,
Will satellites retain our history?
Will wandering beings from way beyond our galaxy
Shake their tentacles at our insanity,
And weep for what's been lost. Completely!
It's been a funny kind of day,
When you contemplate some alien's tears
When the sunset on the bay.
Seems to illustrate, your time is near.
The earth cries out, we can feel the pain.
We close our ears and minds and shift the blame.
The time has come to exorcise our vanity
And understand were nothing but biology
When nature has its way, were helpless.
The jungle drums go silent in the Amazon
The Wall Street bulls left wondering where the coke has gone,
New York, the New Pompeii, it's crazy.
It's been a funny kind of day
When you wonder what the future holds.
