From the recording Liner Notes
Lyrics
IDEA 31
© Copyright Tom Richardson, All Rights Reserved
Oh, we got a problem
On that we agree
That may be the only common ground we can see
I’m headed left, you’re cutting right
Won’t be long before we’re completely out of sight
Searching for suggestions on reconciliation
And one with promise is Idea 31
Bulls breaking China
Doves flying free
Everybody’s shouting, “ME, ME, ME”
Who’s gonna pick up the pieces, who’s gonna carry the load
Or will we kick the can down the road.
Something’s better than nothing
And when all is said and done
Looks like the best option is Idea 31
Idea number 7 is very short on time
16 and 17 involve doing crimes
21 and 23 sure look like fun
But in the end we’re going with Idea 31
Folks out on the fringes
Got to shout to be heard
Things get messy when the melting pot gets stirred
Let’s not go there, let us not give in
Let’s agree to disagree and part as friends
We thought we had the answer
And now it’s clear to see
The new solution is Idea 31-b
