Absurd
What would you say, if you have heard
The news that came today
Or rather you won’t say a word
Just let it go astray
What would you say, or maybe think
To say, but you won’t do
Would you prefer another drink
To help a thought come through?
What would you say on deal of peace
They tried to fix for good
You never knew it would be missed
Or did you know it would?
Come drink my wine, bring up your bread
The music sounds so blue
What would you say if all is said
And done, like you would do?
There will be winds, and bending trees
And sun, and rain, and snow
There will be ships in deep blue seas
And more of things you know
One day there won’t be us, my friend
So won’t you share with me
A word or two, if there’s no end
To the absurd we see?
