The Kettle - Colosseum

Why the kettle dry?

Why the empty eye?

Why the vacant sky?

Why the sunspots cry?

The kettle dry

The sunspots cry

The empty eye

The vacant sky

And you ask me

Why the kettle dry?

Why?

Well, you ain’t gonna like it

Well, you ain’t gonna like it, darling

If you want you can buy it

But it won’t wait, darling

You say you want to understand

You say you won’t be underhand

Why the kettle dry?

Why?

Why the scarecrow cry?

Why the rainbow fly?

Why the planets die?

Why the kettle dry?

The scarecrow cry with an empty eye

The rainbow fly in the vacant sky

The planets die and the sunspots cry

The kettle dry and you ask me

Why the kettle dry?

Why?

Well, you ain’t gonna like it

It’s no use tryin' to fight it, darling

It’s so bad I can’t stand it

I’m moving out, darling

It’s time you came to understand

You never again will hold my hand

Why the kettle dry?

Why?

Why?
