The rain falls and David will not win today br While his sign screams “Save the Trees” br And everywhere the world is go, go, go br And the sky is rain, rain, rain br br I watch your words fall mutely br Bounce, and become raindrops, watch br The stony words you throw get brushed aside br By windshield wipers, by tight squinted eyes br br Watch the brave word “change” you shout br Get stamped out by black black shoes br By men with umbrellas held like spears br And briefcases like little black shields br br While the days and days and people pass br While the world spin, spins, spun the same direction br While the rain slips down windows like glass tears br While all the islands slip into the sea br br You stand there, glare angrily at it all br While ten thousand pairs of legs walk past br Cross off “trees” change to “countless people” br As Goliaths brush past with closed axe eyesbr br Ben Paynterbr br
