Trouble Every Day

Trouble Every Day - Frank Zappa[00:00:00]

Well I'm about to get UPSET[00:00:12]

From watchin' my TV[00:00:14]

Been checkin' out the news[00:00:16]

Until my eyeballs fail to see[00:00:18]

I mean they say that every day[00:00:20]

Is just another rotten mess[00:00:22]

And when it's gonna change, my friends[00:00:24]

Is anybody's guess[00:00:26]

So I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'[00:00:28]

Hopin' for the best[00:00:30]

Even think I'll go to prayin'[00:00:32]

Every time I hear 'em sayin'[00:00:34]

That there's no way to delay[00:00:36]

That trouble comin' every day[00:00:38]

No way to delay[00:00:40]

That trouble comin' every day[00:00:42]

Wednesday I watched the riot...[00:00:52]

I seen the cops out on the street[00:00:54]

Watched 'em throwin' rocks and stuff[00:00:56]

And chokin' in the heat[00:00:58]

Listened to reports[00:01:00]

About the whisky passin' 'round[00:01:01]

Seen the smoke & fire[00:01:04]

And the market burnin' down[00:01:06]

Watched while everybody[00:01:08]

On his street would take a turn[00:01:09]

To stomp and smash and bash and crash[00:01:12]

And slash and bust and burn[00:01:14]

And I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'[00:01:15]

Hopin' for the best[00:01:18]

Even think I'll go to prayin'[00:01:20]

Every time I hear 'em sayin'[00:01:22]

That there's no way to delay[00:01:23]

That trouble comin' every day[00:01:25]

No way to delay[00:01:27]

That trouble comin' every day[00:01:29]

Well you can cool it,[00:01:42]

You can heat it...[00:01:44]

'Cause, baby, I don't need it...[00:01:45]

Take your TV tube and eat it[00:01:47]

'N all that phony stuff on sports[00:01:49]

'N all THOSE unconfirmed reports[00:01:51]

You know I watched that rotten box[00:01:53]

Until my head began to hurt[00:01:55]

From checkin' out the way[00:01:57]

The newsmen say they get the dirt[00:01:59]

Before the guys on channel so-and-so[00:02:01]

And further they assert[00:02:04]

That any show they'll interrupt[00:02:05]

To bring you news if it comes up[00:02:07]

They say that if the place blows up[00:02:09]

They'll be the first to tell[00:02:11]

Because the boys they got downtown[00:02:13]

Are workin' hard and doin' swell,[00:02:15]

And if anybody gets the news[00:02:17]

Before it hits the street,[00:02:19]

They say that no one blabs it faster[00:02:21]

Their coverage can't be beat[00:02:23]

And if another woman driver[00:02:25]

Gets machine-gunned from her seat[00:02:27]

They'll send some joker with a brownie[00:02:29]

And you'll see it all complete[00:02:31]

So I'm watchin' and I'm waitin'[00:02:33]

Hopin' for the best[00:02:35]

Even think I'll go to prayin'[00:02:37]

Every time I hear 'em sayin'[00:02:39]

That there's no way to delay[00:02:41]

That trouble comin' every day[00:02:43]

No way to delay[00:02:45]

That trouble comin' every day[00:02:47]

Hey you know something people[00:02:53]

I'm not black[00:02:56]

But there's a whole lots a times[00:02:57]

I wish I could say I'm not white[00:02:58]

Well, I seen the fires burnin'[00:03:05]

And the local people turnin'[00:03:06]

On the merchants and the shops[00:03:08]

Who used to sell their brooms and mops[00:03:10]

And every other household item[00:03:13]

Watched the mob just turn and bite 'em[00:03:15]

And they say it served 'em right[00:03:17]

Because a few of them are white,[00:03:18]

And it's the same across the nation[00:03:20]

Black & white discrimination[00:03:22]

They're yellin' "You can't understand me!"[00:03:24]

And all the other crap they hand me[00:03:26]

In the papers and TV[00:03:28]

'N all that mass stupidity[00:03:30]

That seems to grow more every day[00:03:32]

Each time you hear some nitwit say[00:03:34]

He wants to go and do you in[00:03:36]

Because the color of your skin[00:03:38]

Just don't appeal to him[00:03:40]

(No matter if it's black or white)[00:03:42]

Because he's out for blood tonight[00:03:44]

You know we gotta sit around at home[00:04:20]

And watch this thing begin[00:04:22]

But I bet there won't be many left[00:04:24]

To see it really end[00:04:26]

'Cause the fire in the street[00:04:28]

Ain't like the fire in my heart[00:04:29]

And in the eyes of all these people[00:04:32]

Don't you know that this could start[00:04:33]

On any street in any town[00:04:36]

In any state if any clown[00:04:37]

Decides that now's the time to fight[00:04:39]

For some ideal he thinks is right[00:04:41]

And if a million more agree[00:04:44]

There ain't no great society[00:04:45]

As it applies to you and me[00:04:48]

Our country isn't free[00:04:50]

And the law refuses to see[00:04:52]

If all that you can ever be[00:04:53]

Is just a lousy janitor[00:04:55]

Unless your uncle owns a store[00:04:57]

You know that five in every four[00:04:59]

WON'T amount TO nothin' more[00:05:01]

THAN watch the rats go across the floor[00:05:03]

And make up songs about being poor[00:05:05]

Blow your harmonica son![00:05:08]
