It's time I had better. i really need better.
I need cool, sunny  days
and wetter weather.
i never dreamed I'd be prayin this hard
for a good hard soaking rain.
There's  arson fires
peeling out tires.
Free first class tickets for the
crazy train.
It's my  new pet peev
Forgettin' to ask for what I need..  .

I'm asking 
because It's about time I had
the bigger piece, a larger, more generous share,,

we ought to have the right to be there, anywhere.
Move to motivate the mass living dead
with one foot stuck in the grave.
Who's unwilling to risk
 a slower goodbye hug.
a sweeter hello kiss.
Heroes who  live as they speak with their hearts
brllliant minds in bronze after they up and die'
They too shot off all their guns like we are
with a hit but sometimes a miss.
Do I have to wait ten thousand years
to see  a loser with a daydream win,..
Build up and support solid people, before reinforcing bridges..
I want more than a thimble full, a spoonful , a cup,  or a pitcher full better.
When a history channel
 forecasts more dreary weather.
When, statistics clearly show, the odds 
aren't in our favor
Scream fight and pout, since
you're best to hold out
like the smart money
holding out for better..
