lyrics
The barometer says, there is a storm
The mercury's low and the sky is forlorn.
there’s a wayward draft, under my door.
the barometer says there is a storm
the textbook says, this is what took place
eyewitness accounts and magistrates
the gavel came down, and they closed the case
the textbook says, this is what took place
the preacher says, love all that you find
the drunks, the whores, the poor and the blind.
all of us must be of one mind.
the preacher says, love all that you find
the composer says, the rules go like this
no 2nd inversions or parallel fifths.
no predestined notes that don’t go where they fit.
the composer says, the rules go like this.
The orphan says, I’m tired of your wars
an eye for an eye, but you question what for.
you took my father and mother, now you’re asking for more.
the orphan says I’m tired of your wars
the newsman says, we can’t let them in
at the end of the day, it’s us or them.
there’s no room, left in the inn.
the newsman says we can’t let them in.
well, the draft came and went, and the storm simply quit.
the historians acquired new evidence.
the street dwellers still sing their laments.
with out of key harmonies and parallel fifths.
and the newsman’s a wanderer, but they can’t let him in.
there’s simply no room left in that orphan’s inn.
words and numbers are fickle, and complex.
but love just isn’t.
