Lyrics

There is so much unrest
In this little town tonight
I place the kettle on the flame
And pray it will be alright
It’s been a rough year
The family’s livin’ hard
It seems the salmon have forgotten their way
Back to where they start
The wanderers huddle together
In one giant cloud their breath does rise
(While) attention turns to the hundred dollar bottle
and excitement burns in their eyes
There is so much unrest
In this little town tonite
I place the kettle on the flame
And pray it will be alright
And pray it will be alright
Musical interlude
Uncle Joe has gotten ill
And everyone is scared
But no one dares to talk about it
Yet something funny is in the air
And is this how it is?
Human condition exposed
Will it foster strength and honesty?
Or will it be buried in the snow?
Will it foster strength and honesty?
Or will it be buried in the snow?
There is so much unrest
In the little town tonite
I place the kettle on the flame
And pray it will be alright
Repeat
