Slow Coming - Benjamin Booker

At the top of the hour

Today in the news

A little girl is shot down

While tying her shoes

Honestly

How can I be proud right now

To tell you the truth

I ain't been sleeping too well

Although our parents

Fought to be equal

The state decides true love

If they only knew it

Honestly

How can I be proud right now

To tell you the truth

I ain't been sleeping too well

Today he gets five stars

For learning to read

Too bad he's not from here

He better learn to **

And even though computers are taking up my time

Even though there's satellites roaming in space

Even though my phone predicts the weather

I still can't help you

Even though computers are taking up my time

Even though there's satellites roaming in space

Even though my phone predicts the weather

I still can't help you

The future is slow coming honey

The future is slow slow coming

The future is slow coming

The future is slow slow coming
