There Goes My Guesswork

from Wood Anniversary by Hello Whirled

/

lyrics

the big Christian banks are pumping money into killing oil, what else is new?
and by killing I mean "it does" and not "they do" and definitely not "here to improve"
in any other zone or world or scene or universe it'd be clear wrong
but in this one spot in time in space in history they'll always be like "army strong"

in an another timeline I'm a great reporter gathering large piles of dirt
and the owners of the newspaper I write for watch me run and almost start to hurt
so they send out para-militaries, private and illegal, hired to hunt me down
forcing me to run across the law and make myself lost so I'm never found

love's a curious affair, I'll never understand it nor do wish to try
it's easier to wrap my head around why governments would let their people die
or an inexpensive vial of panacea has to be a tool for market price
and in building up green walls of flimsy paper, leave the empty-handed to force "play nice"

there goes my guesswork
honey dripping down the walls
blow my papers through the wind
and don't answer back my calls
never listening to what I have to say
