What will you do now
Now that the war is won?
The rich are dead, the poor well-fed
From body bags full of sandwiches
What will you do now
Now that the earth has cooled?
I was told the Hudson froze
I'd like to go, I've never seen a river freeze
Half a world away
We were playing in the waves
She said, "Aren't you glad I packed this black bikini?"
Oh, the waves got rough
One knocked the top part off
She said, "I gotta ask, now that you've seen me
What will you do now?"
What will you do now
Now that you own a home?
I will fetch my daddy's massive desk
Since I'll never have to move again
What will you do now
Now that the ringing gone?
I'll go where I was once terrified
With a book into a quiet room
Spend the afternoon
On what was once protected dunes
Make what was love to what was left of us
In another thirty years
Say out loud, "What have we here?"
Upon my waking first in the morning
What will you do now?
What will you do now?
