Right On Time Lyrics

Right On Time lyrics

I've never seen a sky

As flat as this one

As flat as the brown earth 

Beneath our feet

Never seen a horizon 

As dim as this one

It's 110 in the street



It's summer time again 

In southern california

As fabled as any land ever known

Inside this house

With bars on the window

We dont get shown

The rest of the world



Here come the rain birds

Here come the rain birds

Here come the rain birds

Right on time



Out here 

Theres a riot waiting to happen

Theres a whole lot of people

Who will be hurt

There are just too many of us

Thrown together

In this 

Seven square miles of dirt

Inside the house 

It's cool and dark

We keep the lights off

So it won't hurt our eyes

Out in the backyard 

The sun bakes the earth

Uut by the old garage



Here come the rain birds 

Right on time
