lyrics

There's a peace when dogs are digging, it's too much for me to bear
And the vintage powder pack, oh no, we'd better not go there
There's the clumsy, loving couple who perhaps have need to die

These days, darlin'
These days
These days everything makes me cry

There's an injun at the window with the water-cooler raised
There's an empty set of sneakers for the lonely and the crazed
There's a goldfish playing possum till the flush will let him fly

These days, darlin'
These days
These days everything makes me cry
Oh, everything makes me cry

It isn't just injustice or man's abuse to man
It isn't just the things I know I'll never see again
It isn't very pretty, so I take my leave goodbye
But these days everything makes me cry

There's a song I keep repeating I'm pretending that I wrote
There's a bird upon the phone pole that consoles with every note
There's a drunken Santa's monologue-
A wizard's loss of greed-
There's schmuck who finds his purpose from a boy he helped to feed
When I feel a little evil, some unworthy, kicked and shoved

The trees, the sun, and rain and stars
Remind me that I'm loved
Oh, the trees, the sun, and rain and stars
Remind me that I'm loved.

Oh, these days, darlin'
These days
These days everything makes me cry
Everything makes me cry
Oh, everything makes me cry
