Sign O' The Times

In France a skinny man died of a big disease with a little name
By chance his girlfriend came across a needle and soon she did the same
At home there are seventeen-year-old boys and their idea of fun
Is being in a gang called The Disciples high on crack, totin' a machine gun

Hurricane Annie ripped the ceiling of a church
And killed everyone inside
U turn on the telly and every other story
Is tellin' U somebody died
Sister killed her baby cuz she could afford 2 feed it
And yet we're sending people 2 the moon
In September my cousin tried reefer 4 the very first time
Now he's doing horse, it's June

It's silly, no?
When a rocket ship explodes and everybody still wants 2 fly Some say a man ain't happy
Unless a man truly dies

Baby make a speech, Star Wars fly
Neighbors just shine it on
But if a night falls and a bomb falls
Will anybody see the dawn

It's silly, no?
When a rocket blows up
And everybody still wants 2 fly
Some say a man ain't happy truly
Until a man truly dies

Oh why, oh why Sign O the Times

Sign O the Times mess with your mind
Hurry before it's 2 late
Let's fall in love, get married, have a baby
We'll call him Nate... if it's a boy

A very profound song. one that's message seems to just get more and more relevant as time goes on.
