monday's for good

it happened once before long long time

i think it maybe was in twenty-one-nine

or maybe twenty-twenty was the year

when the first signs of the plague did appear

since then our ways of life have changed a lot

the lock-down was the very thing we got

the cities and streets became quite bare

and everybody was having fun elsewhere

see the skies

see the blue blue skies

we can see

we can see for miles

people so benign life is slowing down

rivers so clean

you can see the ground

see the skies

see the blue blue skies

we can see

we can see for miles

there days like these when the time was ripe

for another life fly

fly

fly

fly

fly away. we never have returned to former times

we're sitting pretty watching the mountain sites

or marvel at the sunsets by the seas

while hanging upside down from apple trees

now you may ask does such a life make sense

not much but sense is often mere pretence

and you may ask if such a life proves out

the answer's yes"
