I was standing on a mountain When I got a message from the sun It was a sad face, a trophy, a heart, and a loaded gun I wrote her in a panic I said, "My God, what have you done?" She said, "You must be kidding. It's only just begun." I was born in California Back before the fields burned to the ground And the people started leaving And the dust it started claiming the towns I tried to call to governor To see if all the troubles were done She said, "You must be kidding. They've only just begun." We were standing on the beach And we were trying hard to figure things out. Some kids were killing Piggy, And some other kids were fishing for trout When the choppers started landing And the army came to take us away They put us in a nice hotel for a day I wandered through the lobby Tried to wash the blood from my hands But the faucet wasn't running It was all filled with sand I asked the concierge If this is how the things here were done— She said, "You must be joking— It's only just begun." Why don't you Stay by my side While the oceans They spit in our eye And the mountains are laughing And my Hands are so dry But we've got enough money, baby It'll be all right Yeah, we've got enough money, maybe It'll be all right Ah ha ha ha haahhahahahahahahha
