Thirty More Years - Steve Forbert[00:00:00]
A little girl is standing at your door on Halloween[00:00:18]
The face of expectation[00:00:22]
And of trust in everything[00:00:24]
A little boy has thrown some heavy stones into a pond[00:00:26]
Dusting off his hands[00:00:30]
He's feeling proud of what he's done[00:00:32]
The geocentric days are gone and earth is still a sphere[00:00:34]
Objects in the mirror may be just as they appear[00:00:38]
We spin around the sun and call each trip we make a year[00:00:43]
Thirty more years of this and people I am out of here[00:00:47]
Out of here[00:00:51]
Here[00:00:56]
The trees turn into buildings[00:01:00]
And the weeks turn into months[00:01:01]
It's one thing or another[00:01:04]
Or it's everything at once[00:01:05]
There's two sides to each story yes[00:01:08]
And sometimes many more[00:01:10]
And four bananas make a bunch[00:01:12]
And two times ten's a score[00:01:14]
The geocentric days are gone and earth is still a sphere[00:01:16]
Objects in the mirror may be just as they appear[00:01:21]
We spin around the sun and call each trip we make a year[00:01:25]
Thirty more years of this and people I am out of here[00:01:29]
Out of here[00:01:33]
Here[00:01:38]
If we weren't in so much trouble[00:01:42]
I would say that things were fine[00:01:43]
And smile as I went walking[00:01:46]
And just wave on down the line[00:01:48]
If there weren't so many problems[00:01:50]
I would say that it's okay[00:01:52]
And smile as I went walking[00:01:54]
And just wave on down the way[00:01:56]
Mothers hate war more in general than joint chiefs of staff[00:02:01]
Battleground statistics don't add up in schoolhouse math[00:02:05]
The male of this here species lives for eighty years or so[00:02:09]
Starts to see the mess he's made[00:02:13]
And then it's time to go[00:02:15]
The geocentric days are gone and earth is still a sphere[00:02:17]
Objects in the mirror may be just as they appear[00:02:22]
We spin around the sun and call each trip we make a year[00:02:26]
Thirty more years of this and people I am out of here[00:02:30]
Out of here[00:02:34]
Here[00:02:39]
It's often said that life is strange but hey compared to what[00:02:43]
I asked this question years ago it's still worth asking but[00:02:47]
It all seems stranger now I think but that could be just me[00:02:51]
And I've no all time gauge of strange for objectivity[00:02:55]
The geocentric days are gone and earth is still a sphere[00:03:00]
Objects in the mirror may be just as they appear[00:03:04]
We spin around the sun and call each trip we make a year[00:03:08]
Thirty more years of this and people I am out of here[00:03:12]
Out of here here[00:03:16]
Out of here here[00:03:20]
Out of here here[00:03:24]
Out of here here[00:03:28]
