January 6 (Looking For Some Wise Men) ©2022 Tim O'Brien
Chorus:
Looking for some wise men
Tell me what you see
Surely there’s some wise men
On this Epiphany
Today was such a sad day
In US history
Looking for some wise men
I hope there’s more than three
The twelfth day of Christmas
Just the wife and me
Boxing up another year
Taking down the tree
It’s quiet here in Nashville
Snow is falling down
The President’s on TV
We watch without the sound
Chorus
A year ago today
I was working here at home
I finally stopped to look at
What was pinging on my phone
Nothing we could do
For the rest of that day
When your country is imploding
It’s hard to look away
Chorus
I think I know the system
I know the voting rules
The ones who keep complaining
Seem like charlatans and fools
But everything’s political
From health to history
You buy the news you like and
It tells you what you see
Chorus
