"Rhyme And Reason"
Rhyme and reason
Reason and rhyme
We asked the old man
"What is the time?"
"The time" he said
"I do not know
The clocks stopped working
Some time ago"
"What a disaster" was our reply.
"We don't know if it's
One o'clock
Or half past five"
The man kept talking
Things were fine
Looking at the sun he said
"The time was for reason and rhyming"
Reason and rhyme
Rhyme and reason
We asked the old lady
"What is this season?"
"The season" she said
"You can't be sure
The weather's strange
Can't tell you anymore"
"Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god
What a thing
We don't know if it's summer,
Autumn, winter or spring"
"But wait" she cried
"This might be pleasing
The season has come
For rhyme and reasoning"
Rhyme and reason
And destination
We ask ourselves
"What is this nation?"
"This place" they say
"Was no man's land
And terra nullius
Was written in the sand"
So what?
With all these spaces
Can't we be independent
And combine the races?
Well we will see
What we can do
Like time and the season
We'll rhyme and then
We'll reason
