Day-On.U

There's a dust bowl in here at The center of things And the tumbleweed tumbles right through it All the seeds that I sow, Though i try they won't grow Although God only knows how I want it I'll keep planting away every fourteenth day Til there's no more seeds left in the packet But this is day one and my old seed is gone So today I'm right back where I started from Yeah, today I'm right back where I started from Today I'm face down in the dust Day one, day one With nothing Day one, day one And life leaps and springs from All manner of things It can grow on the side of a building Like a flower that sprouts out Of cracked chi'mney spouts And the crannies that nobody filled in While the plants And the bricks make my dust bowl feel sick In a fortnight a new seed will be planted But this is day one and my old seed is gone So today I'm right back where I started from Yeah, today I'm right back where I started from Today I'm face down in the dust Day one, day one With nothing Day one, day one I've been plowing the ground, But all these stones that i've found Make me wonder if dust bowls are proper But this acre of flesh Where no tributaries stretch Is the only place I have to offer So I hope and I pray every night, every day That God shines on the seed that I planted But this is day one and my old seed is gone So today I'm right back where I started from Yeah, today I'm right back where I started from Today I'm face down in the dust Day one, day one With nothing Day one, day one
