Tell me father once again
Of how it used to be
Back when man could walk the land
About birds and fish and trees
Tell me about the oceans
About trains and boats and cars
And how people used to meet
At shopping malls and bars
Tell me about the writers
And the stories that they wrote
The books that became movies
About the languages that they spoke
Tell me about the weather
And the sun that warmed your face
Then the snow that fell from skies
About the cold that took warms place
Tell me about the people
All the colors that they be
Then tell me about eyes again
And what it is to see
Tell me father tell me please
Just tell me once again
Father, father, oh father
Father is this the end
