Where we live spring comes early Trees in bloom when the northern country Is covered in snow, oh A windy fitful day in winter Charging toward the Ides of May The climate now is cling to splinters We hold hands while we work and play And hope tomorrow is a sunny day Where we live men are women Women are teenage boys And everybody wants to look like them But be like men A windy fitful day in winter Charging toward the Ides of May The climate now is cling to splinters We hold hands while we work and play
And hope tomorrow is a sunny day Rubens would have loved you And painted you that way With your pen and paper Paying quiet attention to a lady with a plastic face So thin, so thin she might blow away A windy fitful day in winter Charging toward the Ides of May The climate now is cling to splinters We hold hands while we work and play A windy fitful day in winter Charging toward the Ides of May The climate now is cling to splinters We hold hands while we work and play And hope tomorrow is a sunny day
