Lyrics for Song: Red Tide
Lyrics for Album: Presto [1989]
Nature has some new plague
To run in our streets
History has some new wrinkle
We are doomed to repeat.
Fugitives at the bedroom door
Lovers pause to find an open store
Rain is burning on the forest floor
And the red tide kisses the shore.
This is not a false alarm
This is not a test.
Stay out of the sun
It only burns my skin
Sky full of poison
And the atmosphere's too thin.
Bless the sun, the rain no more
River running like an open sore
Black wind falling to the ocean floor
And the red tide washes ashore.
This is not a false alarm
This is not a test
Nowhere we can fly away, nowhere we can rest
The party is disrupted by an uninvited guest.
Deadline approaches
For the weary land
It used to be something
But we let it run down in our hands.
Too late for debate, too bad to ignore
Quiet rebellion leads to open war
Bring a sea change to the factory floor
As the red tide covers the shore.
Now's the time to turn the tide
Now's the time to fight
Let us not go gently
To the endless winter night.
Now's the time to make the time
While hope is still in sight
Let us not go gently
To the endless winter night
