Sunday Song Lyric:
http://volokh.com/archives/archive_2009_02_01-2009_02_07.shtml#1233504741
A reader suggests "Fallen on Hard Times" by [1]Jethro Tull as a Sunday
Song Lyric. It seems rather fitting given today's economic and
political climate. The song was originally released on Tull's 1982
album, [2]The Broadsword and the Beast. Here are two verses:
Fallen on hard times � but it feels good to know
that milk and honey's just around the bend.
Running on bad lines � we'd better run as we go,
Tear up, tear up the overdraft again. . . .
Fallen on hard times � and there's nowhere to hide
Now they've re-possessed the Rolls Royce and the mink.
Turning on the peace sign � and it's back to the wood.
Soon there will be raised a holy stink.
The full lyrics are available [3]here, and there's also a [4]live
performance on YouTube.
