It's Always Something

It's always something

It's always something there to spoil your day

It's always something made out of nothing

But it gets its way

My AOL went down again

They're starving in Zaire

Close your eyes and count to ten

The sky is falling dear

It's always something

Something you're waiting that will make you whole

Some piece of nothing you need so badly

That you'd sell your soul

How many inches is your screen

Are the images too clear

Just channel surf the news away

The sky is falling

Your god is calling

I may not know it

I may not see

It's always something messin' with me

I may not like it but it will be

And if I fight it'll never be free

There's always something we could be learning

From those windmill fores

It's always someone you least expected

Who really knows

That there's no better time or place

To read between the lines on your face

Stop choking on that grain of salt

The sky's not falling

We've just been staling

I may not know it

I may not see

It's always something messin' with me

I may not like it but it will be

And if I fight it'll never be free
