One Fine Day

Optimists say

"The future's just a place we've never been"

History say

"We're doomed to make the same mistakes again"

Between the two I can't decide

Really I must choose a side

I guess I'll wake up smarter

One fine day

Apologists say

"The weather's just a cycle we can't change"

Scientists say

"We've pushed those cycles way beyond"

Dear leaders, please do something quick

Time is up, the planet's sick

But hey, we'll all be grateful

One fine day

Today, the Northwest Passage just got found

Three penguins and a bear got drowned

The ice they lived on disappeared

Seems things are worse than some had feared

It's progress of a kind

Who knows what else we're going to find?

So do you trust your head or heart

When things all seem to fall apart?

I guess we'll wake up smarter

One fine day

Today it's raining dogs and cats

Rabbits jumping out of hats

And now what's got us all agog

Tomorrow it's a plague of frogs

We must do something quick or die

When snakes can talk and pigs will fly

And we'll all be so much wiser

One fine day

One fine day

One fine day

One fine day

One fine day
