About how the times, they are a changin'.
They say the pen is mightier than the sword
But what about nuclear bombs?
And a picture is worth a couple letters
Stored on a CD-ROM.
They say its better to have loved and lost,
But what about love that's still here?
As clear as day, as though you never went away
Steady as a grinding gear

They say its not over till the fat lady sings,
But what if she's skinny and frail?
Does that mean that its time to drink up the wine?
That we will never prevail?
They say the pen is mightier than the sword,
But what about nuclear bombs?
And the millions of dead and the blood, flowing red
Can all be stored
On a CD-ROM
