("New Mother Nature") Jocko says yes and I believe him When we talk about the things I say She hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him When they're standin' in each other's way You're driven back now to places you've been to You're wonderin' what you're gonna find You know you've been wrong but it won't be long Before you leave 'em all far behind
'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over It's the new splendid lady come to call It's the new Mother Nature takin' over She's gettin' us all She's gettin' us all
Jocko said no when I came back last time It's lookin' like I lost a friend No use callin' 'cause the sky is fallin' And I'm gettin' pretty near the end A smoke-filled room in a corner basement The situation must be right A bag o' goodies and a bottle o' wine We're gonna get it on right tonight
'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over It's the new splendid lady come to call It's the new Mother Nature takin' over She's gettin' us all She's gettin' us all
(1st verse of "No Sugar Tonight" sung simultaneously with 1st verse of "New Mother Nature" Lonely feelin' Jocko says yes and I believe him Deep inside When we talk about the things I say Find a corner She hasn't got the faith or the guts to leave him Where I can hide When they're standin' in each other's way Silent footsteps You're driven back now to places you've been to Crowdin' me You're wonderin' what you're gonna find Sudden darkness You know you've been wrong and it won't be long But I can see Before you leave 'em all far behind
'Cause it's the new Mother Nature takin' over It's the new splendid lady come to call It's the new Mother Nature takin' over She's gettin' us all She's gettin' us all
