A MODEST PROPOSAL

A MODEST PROPOSAL
The picture is my dad and his brother…

The sun is a magical ball
It’s got fire and gas
Yes, the sun has it all
The sun comes each day
Shines down it’s heat
Glory be, the sun shines for free

The sun can’t be stopped by the rain
It shines right on thru
to the mountains and plain
and you don’t have to dig
and you don’t have to lie
The sun keeps on a comin’
when the wells run dry
The sun keeps on a common’
when the oil runs dry

Oh, why do I keep thinking
we can get over this
we’ve got the vinegar
and we’ve got the piss
We don’t have forever
so let’s get off our ass
take the wind and the sun
take a pass on the gas

The sun has a beautiful friend
And the sun don’t have to ask
for a dance with the wind
There’s no cover charge
and the party’s for free
and the party’s for you
and the party’s for me

The sun is a magical ball
and we don’t have to fear
it’s not gonna fall
It don’t stink up the water
It don’t smoke up the sky
It won’t raise your taxes
when the well runs dry

Oh, why do I keep thinking
we can get over this
we’ve got the vinegar
and we’ve got the piss
We don’t have forever
so let’s get off our ass
take the wind and the sun
take a pass on the gas

You complain about
the wind in your face
I think it’s about time
we put the wind in it’s place
from down in south Texas
To the Montana skies
you can see the turbines shining
when the sun starts to rise…
