Four of us were having dinner

 And I threw down the paper with a curse

 And my wife said "Complaining doesn't get it

 You got to do something or you can bet it will get worse"

 And my friend said "You've been watching T.V. too much

 And all that hippie hopefullness is just a crutch

 But if thinking that way helps you

 To make it through the night

 Then who am I to say what's wrong and right?"

 But I think we're passing through here kind of fast

 Did you think these tracks in the dust would last?

 I think we're passing through here kind of fast

 Did you think these tracks in the dust would last?

"So you think we should just sit here

And have another glass of wine

While the world goes to hell

Which you know damn well it's going to do just down the line?"

And his lady said "I dunno, how can you be so sure

I mean, some things seem to get better

The hero still saves the damsel in distress

The villan doesn't get her"

And I said "Where have you been living?

I mean they're selling death in the streets, cheap

And the lying politicians are rolling in the profits they reap"

He said "He's right honey, but I think it's always been that way"

And he smiled kind of patiently and I knew he was going to say

I think we're passing through here kind of fast

Did you think these tracks in the dust would last?

I think we're passing through here kind of fast

Did you think these tracks in the dust would last?
