No Rain

My mother use to say that

The rain will wash it clean

No matter what went wrong

In the world that you’d seen

Those were simpler times I guess

But I still know what she means

The world could use a good bath ya

A good scrub in down

But there’s no rain insight

In the late evening

I’ve heard them cry

I’ve seen them on my tv

I’ve watched them lie

There is no easy answer

That you can give

It’s always about the money

And how it’s all dryin up

But there’s no rain insight

I had a dream last night

It was the end of the world

There was the usual fallout

Dust blowin round

Nuclear war heads shining

Against a dark and blood red sky

As everybody gathered

To say their last goodbyes

There was No rain insight
