about

Written on April 1, 2018 with a heavy heart. Expecting one thing and getting another. Dedicated to my father Antonino (the king of metaphors) Famà, born on April 1, 1960.

lyrics

Don't know what to do and I don't know what to say.
Don't know what to think and I think I'll keep it that way.
'Cause I'm property of the state and I was born with an expiration date.
But if we don't fight for ourselves we got an April Fools kinda fate.

Today is Easter Sunday and it's also April Fools.
If Jesus wants to come back he better sharpen his tools.
He ain't property of the state, 'cause he was born with no expiration date.
(Born again)
But if we don't fight like a shepherd we got an April Fools kinda fate,
Yeah but it's not to late.

Yesterday was a blue moon, 31st of March.
Mother Nature's holdin' on but she's feelin' kinda parched.
2019 and hope is lookin' sparse.
But look up, 'cause that gravitational goddess holds her mark.
Yeah, she ain't property of the state, she wasn't born with no expiration date.
'Cause if we don't fight for Mother Earth we got an April Fools kinda fate.

I still don't know what to do and I don't know what to say.
Oh, I don't know what to think and I think I'll keep it that way.
(I'll keep quiet all my life, but)
If we don't fight for ourselves we got an April Fools kinda fate.

Yeah, but it's not too late.
No, it's not too late...
