LYRICS
Halfway to the North Pole
Wondering what’s our goal
Gonna pop a cork
In upstate New York

The music scene’s been seen
Does the pop go on top?
Is what the critics deem
Considered on the spot?

Stop! Think on our own… why not?

If you’re not careful you will
Catch a death of a chill
The winter’s cold upon the hill
Standing on the face of a Catskill

Grab a recorder and guitar
Create a lyric… write a bar
About the folk of folk
Fires of imagination stoke

Stop! Think on our own… why not?

LYRICS
Little pink shacks in the outback
In the Catskills… before the Adirondacks

Chorus
Hey, hey “they shut down the NY (state) thruway”
By the time we got to Woodstock
Believin’ all the folklore talk?

About Bob Dylan
Dunno why I’m afraid of him
Could be sarcasm
Then again, could be the color of his skin

Chorus

Down a dirt road… no place to unload
Puttin’ up a fence… some sort-of defense

Music from Big Pink is the debut studio album by The Band. Released in 1968, it employs a distinctive blend of country, rock, folk, classical, R&B, and soul. The music was composed partly in “Big Pink”, a house shared by Rick Danko, Richard Manuel and Garth Hudson in West Saugerties, New York. — Wikipedia

LYRICS
Sitting adrift on a raft
On what I thought was the sea
But now I’m starting to see
A different destiny

With the handle a flush
The water starts to rush
Is the best choice to go with the flow?
I don’t know
A moment too perplex
Entering the vortex

Spinning round and round and round
As we’re goin’ down, down, down
Into the sewer ’till there’s fewer and fewer
Spinning round. Going down.

A testament to excrement
Our history as testimony
Created a flow against our go
For a fatal blow

LYRICS
Why did the old lady swallow a spider
That wiggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
Can you conclude why spray sulfur at a high altitude
I don’t know why we swallowed the fly
Perhaps we’ll die

Manage a moment to ponder solar radiation management
I fear what we geo-engineer
May endanger all we hold dear
Better ask why we’re foggin’ up the sky
Perhaps we’ll die

Why did the old lady swallow the horse
Why did mankind maintain this course
Looks like we beat a dead horse to death
Wake up world we can’t take it with
No matter how you dread… in The End… the old lady’s dead

ABOUT THIS SONG
Chords
D7 D6 G
Interlude — C Am G

A song about Man coming up with crazy schemes in an attempt to mitigate global warming.

Schemes to tackle climate change could prove disastrous for billions of people, but might be required for the good of the planet, scientists say.

That is the conclusion of a new set of studies into what’s become known as geo-engineering.

This is the so far unproven science of intervening in the climate to bring down temperatures.

These projects work by, for example, shading the Earth from the Sun or soaking up carbon dioxide.

Ideas include aircraft spraying out sulphur particles at high altitude to mimic the cooling effect of volcanoes or using artificial “trees” to absorb CO2.

Long regarded as the most bizarre of all solutions for global warming, ideas for geo-engineering have come in for more scrutiny in recent years as international efforts to limit carbon emissions have failed. — BBC

LYRICS
As the mercury drops
Expectation tops
Awaiting the first flake
Old man winter awake!

Rousts Jack Frost from slumber
Makes the child in us wonder
Dash for the window
Watch the faces glow

Ho, ho, ho

At the first snowflake
Out with the tongue… intake
Covering the treetops
Hoping it never stops

The roads start to cover
School’s gonna be over
Anticipating what we know
Early dismissal here we go!

Ho, ho, ho

LYRICS
For hours, days, weeks and years
The fears of time moving too fast
’till a time when you wonder how long it will last

Chorus
Endure the torture
A nano-second at a time
Endure the torture
It’s gotta be a crime

Enough to bring a grown man to tears
God how long will time stand still
God have mercy — how long until….

Chorus

Are the clock’s hands even moving
The hourglass’ sands dropping
It the half-life even halfing?

LYRICS
Does exploitation of the Christmas Spirit make you wanna cry?
When I see the twinkle in a child’s eye
Then, I know exactly the reason why

The exploration of the Christmas Spirit when you give a toy
Doesn’t matter if they’re a girl or boy
It’s not the cost of the gift they enjoy

Why not give a thought
It amounts to what counts
Why not give a thought
It surmounts the account
