Was any era trouble free

We've become philosophical

We've become philosophical

Or else we'd go mad
If things go too bad
We'll move somewhere where it is tropical.

Through streets I’m prancing
And partnered with the chimney sweep

With a wet window pane
And storms and floods soon, experts say!

My friends in Oz eat on the beach
A picnic including a peach
The sun shining bright
Enough to incite
My need for a large salmon quiche.

The sun is trying to peek through
Which it seems unable to do

Which it seems unable to do
Wish those clouds would shift
