Lyrics
Sign of the Times
Not quite in tune
With anything inside of you
Isn?t it a pitty when you come to understand
We lost the best thing the best we ever had
Sign of the times
Sign of the times
The morning papers scream
We were all deceived!
Yet we all were complicate in the deed
All to complacent to take the heat
Sign of the times
Sign of the times
Politicians sing
& Raise their voices to the silent spring
took mother nature for everything she had
Unheeded warnings cause nothing speaks like cash
Sign of the times
Sign of the times
Rain falls hard & true
Whatever did we do
Down at the river
She overflows her banks
In vain the volunteers & soldiers with sand bags
Can?t hold back the times
& So much for our human kind
?Cause all this water won?t wash away our sins
Fill the empty places we?ve been living in
Sign of the times
Sign of the times
How did we ever come to this
Standing on the brink of a great abyss
Traded our future for barrels of black gold
Can?t face our children for their future we have sold
