At the Time of Writing

There's nothin' much hangin' from the tree in the Garden of Eden It takes a long long time for the fruit to ripen on the vine We better get together or we'll end up on the roof with a shotgun Because a chance, we've only got one It's never very smart to try and strip the bark from an old tree We've been diggin' up the dirt since the rocks of the earth were still warm Now old king coal is dyin', he was nevеr gonna last the long run You know a chance, we'vе only got one At the time of writin', we were in our heads At the time of writin', we were good as dead At the time of writin' At the time of writin', we were fast asleep At the time of writin', we were in too deep At the time of writin' Wait a little while, your eyes will realign into the darkness There's an ice-melt below us, bamboo curtains above Our ocean moat protects us, our friends will surely come You know a chance, we've only got one At the time of writin', we were in our heads At the time of writin', we were good as dead At the time of writin' At the time of writin', we were fast asleep At the time of writin', we were in too deep At the time of writin' They make no apologies for this Make no apologies for anythin' They make no apologies for this Make no apologies for everythin' We are not responsible for this We're not responsible for everythin' We are not responsible for this We're not responsible for everythin' At the time of writin', we were in our heads At the time of writin', we were good as dead At the time of writin' At the time of writin', we were fast asleep At the time of writin', we were in too deep At the time of writin' At the time of writin', we were on the brink At the time of writin', still had time to think At the time, at the time, at the time, at the time, at the time Right now!
