When the Sky Began to Fall

Paroles
So you went and bought a book and now you stand right here and say you know it all But where were you when all the guns went off the fire was hot and sky began to fall Give an illustrated lecture are you're wantin' all the credit are we all supposed to stand around in awe Tell me where were you when all the girls went home and the sky began to fall You are standin' right in front of this ol' boy you don't intend to even see Who could tell to you some things that most of which I do not think that you'd believe Right now he's standin' there a starin' holes into the middle of your back Cause he was really there when you didn't even know where it was at Better step aside before he burns you when the holes go clean on through the cloth He knows you were a thousand miles away back when the sky began to fall He was standin' in the snow and he didn't have a hat or even shoes With so much to load his mind that he'd been happy if it just had been the blues I asked him what he thought but he didn't have a chance to say a word Cause before I finished up you answered for him with a fairytale that everybody here had already heard Some impressions of some things you didn't see but yet you think you mighta saw Like you were leadin' in the stumble and the rumble when the sky began to fall You're posin' for the camera wonderin' what you haven't said you oughta say I wish they'd hurry up and pin a ribbon on your chest and maybe then you'd go away All these battles that you fight and all these mountains in the jungles that you climb You produced in technicolor on the movie lots a growing in your mind Maybe next time that it happens you would only come so far and then only look And only when the smoke had cleared then you could read about it in some book That's the safest way to learn about the things you know you hadn't really saw And no one would see you runnin' to your mother when the sky begins to fall
