nMartha come quick, the doctor is sick, lying there on the streetnThe circus performers they all tried to warn us of the blistering heatnThere ain't no water, so what is the bother with trying to drink?nWhat's the new plan when your medicine man has gone too dead to think?nnI saw you looking out, I saw you looking at menAnd I saw you looking out, I saw you looking at menAnd that white picket fence that you had as a kidnIt ain't white anymore, and the wood has gone thinnnStreets are all empty, the stores have been picked clean, and the lights are all outnThe windows are broken, the doors are all closed, and the buildings torn downnAnd the dogs of the night, well they all lost their bite, and they're too tired to growlnYou tried throwing stones but you can't fight the moans of that hovering crowdnnYeah I saw you crying, I saw you crying last nightnYeah I saw you crying, I saw you crying last night nAnd that white picket fence that you used to have nIt ain't white anymore, and the paint has gone badnnnWell the drugs have worn off and there's blood in your cough, and you're starting to turnnTempers will rise as we blankly stare at the growing concernnAnd the preacher still preaches from outside his steeple, singing When will they learn?nBut the congregation's gone, they're on the church lawn and they're watching it burnnnYeah I saw you screaming, I saw you screaming out loudnYeah I saw you screaming, I saw you screaming out loudnAnd that white picket fence that you had when you were youngnIt ain't white anymore, and the damage has been donennWell you're too sick to scream, and the last of your dreams, they got taken last nightnAll of the nations are growing impatient and they're starting to fightnMothers are dying, children are crying, and they're losing their sightnnIt won't be long, we'll all be gone, walking into the lightnAnd I saw you screaming out, and I saw you looking at menYeah and I saw you reaching out, I saw you reaching for menAnd that white picket fence that you had as a kidnIt ain't shining anymore, and it never ever didnnnn
