The Tea Leaf Prophecy - Joni Mitchell[00:00:01]
Lay down your arms[00:00:13]
Lay em down lay em down now[00:00:21]
Lay down your arms[00:00:30]
Newsreels rattle the nazi dread[00:00:37]
The able bodied have shipped away[00:00:41]
Molly mcgee gets her tea leaves read[00:00:46]
You'll be married in a month they say[00:00:51]
These leaves are crazy[00:00:56]
Look at this town there's no men left[00:01:00]
Just frail old boys and babies[00:01:04]
Talking to teacher in the treble clef[00:01:08]
She plants her garden in the spring[00:01:15]
She does the winter shovelling[00:01:24]
Tokyo rose on the radio[00:01:32]
She says she's leaving but she don't go[00:01:43]
Out of the blue just passing thru[00:01:50]
A young flight sergeant On two weeks leave[00:01:53]
Says molly mcgee no one else will do[00:01:58]
And seals the tea leaf prophecy[00:02:02]
Oh these nights are strong and soft[00:02:07]
Private passions and secret storms[00:02:12]
Nothing about him ticks her off[00:02:17]
And he looks so cute in his uniform[00:02:21]
She plants her garden in the spring[00:02:28]
He does the winter shovelling[00:02:37]
But summer's just a sneeze in a long long bad-winter cold[00:02:44]
She says I'm leaving here but she don't go[00:02:55]
Sleep little darling This is your happy home[00:03:02]
Hiroshima cannot be pardoned[00:03:11]
Don't have kids when you get grown[00:03:16]
Because this world is shattered[00:03:19]
The wise are mourning[00:03:25]
The fools are joking[00:03:27]
Oh what does it matter[00:03:29]
The wash needs ironing and the fire needs stoking[00:03:33]
She plants her garden in the spring[00:03:40]
He does the winter shovelling[00:03:50]
The three of em laughing round the radio[00:03:58]
She says I'm leaving here but she don't go[00:04:08]
She plants her garden in the spring[00:04:17]
They do the winter shovelling[00:04:26]
