Gettin’ Ugly Out There
I saw the Baby Jesus on the midnight train
He was heading outta town under cover of rain
He said he saw sign and the writing on the wall
He said "Mankind heading for a great big fall"
It's getting ugly out there it's getting darker I swear
People fighting everywhere somebody say a prayer
It's getting ugly out there
He said " a lotta fat cats trying to plant their seed
Hungry for power and driven by greed
I gotta find a place I can hide somehow
O what am I gonna tell the Old man now"
It's getting ugly out there it's getting darker I swear
People fighting everywhere somebody say a prayer
It's getting ugly out there
I turned on my TV to watch some news
Saw big shots arguing spouting their views
Saw a child refugee drowned on the seashore
I had to turn it off I couldn't take it anymore
It's getting ugly out there it's getting darker I swear
People fighting everywhere does anybody even care
It's getting ugly out there
Another politician with his great big plans
How to make a lotta money how to grease a lotta hands
If the people ever knew what was really going on
There's be another politician who'd be dead and gone
It's getting ugly out there it's getting darker I swear
People fighting everywhere somebody say a prayer
It's getting ugly I know I hear the wild wind blow
The Grim Reaper's gonna sow pack my bags I gotta go
It's getting ugly out there it's getting darker I swear
People fighting everywhere somebody say a prayer
It's getting ugly out there
It's getting ugly out there
It's getting ugly out there
It's getting ugly
He was heading outta town under cover of rain
He said he saw sign and the writing on the wall
He said "Mankind heading for a great big fall"
It's getting ugly out there it's getting darker I swear
People fighting everywhere somebody say a prayer
It's getting ugly out there
He said " a lotta fat cats trying to plant their seed
Hungry for power and driven by greed
I gotta find a place I can hide somehow
O what am I gonna tell the Old man now"
It's getting ugly out there it's getting darker I swear
People fighting everywhere somebody say a prayer
It's getting ugly out there
I turned on my TV to watch some news
Saw big shots arguing spouting their views
Saw a child refugee drowned on the seashore
I had to turn it off I couldn't take it anymore
It's getting ugly out there it's getting darker I swear
People fighting everywhere does anybody even care
It's getting ugly out there
Another politician with his great big plans
How to make a lotta money how to grease a lotta hands
If the people ever knew what was really going on
There's be another politician who'd be dead and gone
It's getting ugly out there it's getting darker I swear
People fighting everywhere somebody say a prayer
It's getting ugly I know I hear the wild wind blow
The Grim Reaper's gonna sow pack my bags I gotta go
It's getting ugly out there it's getting darker I swear
People fighting everywhere somebody say a prayer
It's getting ugly out there
It's getting ugly out there
It's getting ugly out there
It's getting ugly
