Year of the Fire Hose
Skirmish: I saw it in the news... (@robinleaf)
Liner Notes
Lyrics
Things that Should not happen Happen every day Follow if you must But you must Also look away I used to Read the papers Cut them up for magic spells They’re gone now And they did it to themselves
Welcome to The year of the fire hose The fire goes out If you’re the one who knows Wake up in the morning Wash the smoke from all your clothes In the year of the fire hose
At least be glad That this one Did not happen to you The prince’s Birthday party Busted in Timbuktu
At least the Course of justice Will have its revenge For the rich And powerful Who have no friends
Welcome to The year of the fire hose The fire goes out If you’re the one who knows Wake up in the morning Wash the smoke from all your clothes In the year of the fire hose

I love that you turned the year of the fire horse into the year of the fire hose. Your chorus had such good rhyming and imagery to convey the endless stream of bad news we see every day.
