Going Back in Time: Song


by Jerry Ratch


 

If we go back in time

We are living in tents

If we go back in time

We are living in caves

 

We are fighting over rivers

We are fighting over fields

Near the soft edges of slime

If we go back in time

 

Nothing would have us

And we had to move on

Our parents, big animals

Who wanted our caves

 

If we go back in time

We are nothing but slime

Our heads are covered meekly

In rainbows, that is all

 

If we go back in time

We live around 55 gal drums

We smoke weed

And drum all night long

 

We sing dirges and songs

Where we don't belong

If we go back in time

We don't even live at all

 

We live in boxcars

Rolling across continents

We live with horses

In a stall

 

If we go back in time

Far enough to see the future

We don't even live

We don't live at all
