"So Sad (The World's In A Tangle)"

This old world's in a tangle
Dark clouds most everywhere
This old world's in a tangle
Dark clouds most everywhere
Gotta breathe this air, but nobody seems to care

Gonna tell all you people
The battle has just begun
Wanna tell all you people
The battle has just begun
Some black day we might not see the sun
(So sad, we're had)

People peepin' and a-hidin'
You know that they're afraid to see
People peepin' and a-hidin'
You know that they're afraid to see
They got blinders on, can't see you or me

You listen to me, old folk
This old world gotta change
Listen to me, you, old folk
This world has gotta change
If the bombs start a-fallin' there'll be no more home on the range
(So sad, it's bad)

We gotta take some consideration
And shake things up a bit
We gotta take some consideration
And shake things up a bit
Some say no, but still we must insist

Too much smoke
Too much gas
Too little green
And it's goin' bad
Help us out or we'll shake your yes, yes, yes
(It's bad, you know we're had)
