Unbelievable

It's unbelievable it's strange but true It's inconceivable it could happen to you You're going north and you're going south Just like bait in a fish's mouth Must be living in the shadow of some kind of evil star It's unbelievable it would get this far It's undeniable what they'd have you to think It's indescribable it can drive you to drink They said it was the land of milk and honey Now they say it's the land of money Whoever thought they'd ever make that stick It's unbelievable you could get this rich this quick Every head is so dignified Every mood is so sanctified Every urge is so satisfied As long as you have paid All the silver all the gold All the sweethearts that you can hold That don't come back with stories untold are hanging on a tree It's unbelievable like a lead balloon So impossible to even line the tomb Kill that beast and feed that swine Scale that wall and smoke that wine Beat that horse and saddle up that drum It's unbelievable the day would finally come Once there was a man who had no eyes Every lady in the land told him lies He stood beneath the silver skies And his heartbeat could plead Every brain is civilized Every nerve is analyzed Everything is criticized when you are in need It's unbelievable it's fancy-free So interchangeable so delightful to see Turn your back, wash your hands There's always someone who understands It don't matter no more what you got to say It's unbelievable it go down this way
