TIMES THEY ARE A CHANGIN' (Artist; Bob Dylan)
Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'.
Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's still in spin
And there's no tellin' who
That it's namin'
For the loser now
Will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin'.
Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside
And it is ragin'
It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'.
Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don't criticize
What you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is
Rapidly agin'
Please get out of the new one
If you can't lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'.
The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is
Rapidly fadin'
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'.
From the diary of the David H. Koch;
I can’t believe it. We groomed the guy, we paid the guy, and hes going to tell us that there actually is climate change? This was supposed to be our scientist, and he says that we are having more extreme weather? Just because we had a dozen billion dollar disasters this year, it could happen any year. Of course, it never did happen any other year, but why? Why couldn’t he just take the money and be vague and obscure? Why did he have to be so factual? My liberal friends (I only have a few) always tease me that facts are known to have a liberal bias. Well I did enjoy that patriotic commercial in the Superbowl with Bob Dylan, oh those old hippies. Koch drifts off to sleep as Mr. Dylans voice comes over the radio...
Come gather around people
the science is known
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept that soon
Shores will be drenched to the bone
If your coastline to you is worth saving
‘Cause you’ll have to start swimming or you’ll sink like a stone
For the climes, they are a changing
Come writers and critics
Its science not zen
And keep your eyes open
The chance won't come again
We must speak out soon
There’s no time for spin
And those who deny must stop gaming
If we’re losers now
we will not later win
For the climes they are a changing
Come Senators and Congressmen
Why so much gall
Don’t let the lobbyists
Pull their great stall
The Golden state's parched
While its you who has stalled
Where there used to be rain
There's now none at all
For the climes, they are a changing
The winter's more cold
And the spring bakes the land
So don’t criticize
If you wont understand
These new forces of nature
Are beyond your command
Your bridges and roads are now aging
Please get out of the way
If you cant lend a hand
‘Cuz the climes they are a changing
The line it is drawn
Changes come fast
Those slow to adjust
Are consigned to the past
As the present now
will later be past
As our timeline is rapidly fading
And the climes
They are a changing.
