Writing Wrongs

written by Michael Nesmith


Did you know the water's turning yellow
Have you heard the sky was falling down
Did you see that guy fall out the window
Did you know the circus was in town

Have you heard about Bill Chambers' mother
She said "A woman's work is never done"
And, oh yes, about that yellow water
Have you noticed the color of the sun

You have a way of making everything you say seem unreal
Are you aware that the people who care are mostly stainless steel

Well I hope you finally got my letter
It should have come about this time last year
And I hope Bill Chambers' mother's better
Oh dear the moon's just disappeared

You have a way of making everything you say seem unreal
Are you aware that the people who care are mostly stainless steel
