"Pushing thru the market 
          square
          so many mothers sighing
          News had just come over, 
          we had five years left to cry in
          
          News guy wept and told us 
          earth was really dying
          Cried so much his face was wet
          then I knew he was not lying
          
          I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies
          I saw boys, toys electric irons and T.V.'s
          My brain hurt like a warehouse
          it had no room to spare
          I had to cram so many things 
          to store everything in there
          And all the fat-skinny people, and all the tall-short people
          And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people
          I never thought I'd need so many people
          
          A girl my age went off her head
          hit some tiny children
          If the black hadn't a-pulled her off, I think she would have killed them
          
          A soldier with a broken arm, fixed his stare to the wheel of a Cadillac
          A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest
          and a queer threw up at the sight of that
          I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour
          drinking milk shakes cold and long
          Smiling and waving and looking so fine
          don't think you knew you were in this song
          
          And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor
          And I thought of Ma and I wanted to get back there
          Your face, your race, the way that you talk
          I kiss you, you're beautiful, I want you to walk
          
          We've got five years, stuck on my eyes
          We've got five years, what a surprise
          We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot
          We've got five years, that's all we've got"
