A song from the CD "There For The Taking". Available at http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/johntabacco5 <br /> <br />Words and Music © 2014 by John Tabacco <br />Published by It Iz What It Iz Music (SESAC) <br /> <br />The chorus melody of this tune stems back to the early 90's and was eventually incorporated into a Gearhead Freaks song called "Ya Gotta Re-Type It". You can hear this melody played on the trumpet at the end of that tune. I always liked the idea but Gian DiMauro and I never bothered to develop it. Two decades later the musical seeds have grown into a full fledged song. But I kind of saw that happening in the future so... <br /> <br />NOBODY, NOBODY KNOWS <br /> <br />Rivers - taxi cabs for flowing life forms and emulsions <br />Rivers - taxi cabs for flowing garbage to the oceans <br />The seagull and all it’s mates <br />They come to gather by the dumpster crates <br />If a pizza box shows up, great <br />They’ll have more plastic cheese to munch on <br />But is this something they should count on? <br /> <br />Well, Nobody, nobody knows <br />What the future has in store tomorrow <br />Nobody, nobody knows <br />Would you care to speculate? <br />Nobody, nobody knows <br />But fate <br /> <br />Sunshine – reveals the floating "pesticidal pollen" <br />I’ve been coughin’ <br />Sunshine - reveals the radiated skin cells on a dolphin <br />While a satellite watches you <br />We’re nothing more than human cellular phones <br />The mystery of what we do no longer hidden like a dog bone <br />Could be your name is on the next drone <br /> <br />Well, Nobody, nobody knows <br />What the future has in store tomorrow <br />Nobody, nobody knows would you care to flip a dime? <br />Nobody, nobody knows what the future has in store tomorrow <br />Nobody, nobody knows <br />Not I <br /> <br />Suspended belief - like the childhood stories of yesterday <br />No kind of relief sittin shiva when love ones pass away <br />The man behind the curtain was gone <br />The day his guessing games were sold to gypsy queens <br />The gypsy queens…. <br /> <br />Look into my crystal balls. <br />YOU FOOLS! <br /> <br />Wave goodbye to the honey bee <br />Welcome the Fukushima folly parade <br />A world of absurdities to feed creations endless wedding <br />I wonder where the whole thing’s heading… <br />Well, Nobody, nobody knows <br />What the future has in store tomorrow <br />Nobody, nobody knows would you care to speculate? <br />Nobody, nobody knows what the future has in store tomorrow <br />Nobody, nobody knows <br />But fate <br /> <br />FATE! <br /> <br />Nobody, nobody knows <br />Nobody, nobody knows <br />Nobody, nobody knows <br />Nobody, nobody knows <br />Nobody, nobody knows <br />Nobody, nobody knows <br />Nobody, nobody knows <br /> <br />JT : Vocals, Acousitc guitar, Programming <br />Patricia Amendolia : Harmonies <br />Barry Hartglass : Bass <br />Vinnie Zummo : All electric guitars <br /> <br />Recorded + Mixed by JT at Suburban Hermit Studios II, Stony Brook, NY <br />Miniatures : "The Time Machine" and "The Seance" by Catherine Tabacco
