The Rock - Harry Chapin[00:00:00]

The rock is gonna fall on us[00:00:15]

He woke with a start[00:00:17]

And he ran to his mother[00:00:19]

The fear dark in his heart[00:00:21]

And he told her of the vision[00:00:22]

That he was sure he'd seen[00:00:24]

She said go back to sleep son[00:00:26]

You're having a bad dream[00:00:28]

Silly child[00:00:33]

Everybody knows the rock leans over the town[00:00:34]

Silly child[00:00:36]

Everybody knows that[00:00:37]

It won't tumble to the ground[00:00:39]

Silly child[00:00:40]

Remember chicken little said[00:00:41]

The sky was falling down[00:00:43]

Silly[00:00:44]

Well nothing ever came of that[00:00:44]

The world still whirls around ahhh[00:00:46]

The rock is gonna fall on us[00:00:53]

He stood and told the class[00:00:55]

The professor put his chalk down[00:00:57]

And peered out through his glasses[00:00:59]

But he went on and said[00:01:01]

I've seen it high up on the hill[00:01:02]

If it doesn't fall this year[00:01:04]

Then very soon it will[00:01:07]

Crazy boy[00:01:11]

Everybody knows the rock leans over the town[00:01:12]

Silly child[00:01:15]

Everybody knows that[00:01:16]

It won't tumble to the ground[00:01:17]

We've more important studies[00:01:19]

Than your fantasies and fears[00:01:20]

Crazy boy[00:01:22]

You know that rock's been perched up[00:01:23]

There for a hundred thousand years yee[00:01:25]

The rock is gonna fall on us[00:01:32]

He told the magistrates[00:01:33]

I believe that we can stop it[00:01:35]

But the time is getting late[00:01:37]

You see I've done all the research[00:01:38]

My plans are all complete[00:01:41]

He was showing them contingencies[00:01:43]

When they showed him to the street[00:01:45]

Just a madman[00:01:49]

Everybody knows[00:01:50]

The rock leans over the town[00:01:51]

Just a[00:01:53]

Everybody knows[00:01:53]

That it won't tumble to the ground[00:01:55]

Just a[00:01:57]

Everybody knows[00:01:57]

Of those who say the end is near[00:01:58]

Everybody knows[00:02:01]

That life goes on as usual around here yee[00:02:01]

He went up on the mountain[00:02:13]

Beside the giant stone[00:02:15]

They knew he was insane[00:02:17]

So they left him all alone[00:02:19]

He'd given up enlisting help for[00:02:21]

There was no one else[00:02:23]

He spent his days devising ways[00:02:25]

To stop the rock himself[00:02:27]

One night while he was working[00:02:31]

Building braces on the ledge[00:02:32]

The ground began to rumble[00:02:34]

The rock trembled on the edge[00:02:36]

The rock is gonna fall on us[00:02:44]

Run or you'll all be crushed[00:02:46]

And indeed the rock was moving[00:02:48]

Crumbling all to dust[00:02:50]

He ran under it with one last hope[00:02:51]

That he could add a prop[00:02:53]

And as he disappeared the rock came to a stop[00:02:55]

The people ran into the street[00:03:02]

But by then all was still[00:03:04]

The rock seemed where it always was[00:03:06]

Or where it always will be[00:03:08]

When someone asked[00:03:10]

Where he had gone they said[00:03:11]

Oh he was daft[00:03:12]

Who cares about that crazy fool[00:03:14]

And then they'd start to laugh[00:03:16]

But high up on the mountain[00:03:21]

When the wind is hitting it[00:03:23]

If you're watching very closely[00:03:25]

The rock slips a little bit[00:03:28]
