Misery:

From the Garden of Eden they had to leave
as nomads in the wilderness unless you believe
there was the beacon of light and a story to tell
when the desk clerk signed them in at the Bates Motel!

---

Health:

Woke up today with a collective sigh
and there's not much time to say goodbye.
Our health is relative and for what it's worth
a meteorite is on target for Planet Earth!

---

Time:

Man certainly made a big mistake.
He tried to measure what he could not take
and became a hapless prisoner in its wake
because time is something you cannot shake!

---

Nature:

Her children come out and are ready to play
so please make it nice so we can stay
but such blessings were reserved for another day.
No one will stand in Mother Nature's way!

---

Conflict:

Well one day somebody started a fight
over who was wrong and who was right
and that was before we started wearing shoes.
Our feet are more comfortable but we still fight the blues!
