There is tumult in the air.
Was it ever so ?
I watched a fight the other day
a blackbird and a worm.
It was ever so.
I did not stop to watch
or even to take sides,
it was ever so,
blackbirds cannot live on bread alone.
Do I ask him not to call
not to warn me of a storm
simply because he killed a worm?
His forecasts will be sound as ever,
a dark side 'neath the feathers
it was ever so.
