IVIV (1) Watts: "Trouble comin' every day"

[Otto]

Definitely one of the early songs that "shaped" our ideology here abroad.

It includes some major lines that helped to made us think...

> I mean to say that every day
> Is just another rotten mess
> And when it's gonna change, my friend
> Is anybody's guess

> Don't you know that this could start
> On any street in any town
> In any state if any clown
> Decides that now's the time to fight
> For some ideal he thinks is right
> And if a million more agree
> There ain't no Great Society
> As it applies to you and me
> Our country isn't free
> And the law refuses to see

> about racial unrest in general and the Watts situation in particular. It was
> written during the Watts riot as it developed. I shopped it briefly all over
> Hollywood but no one would touch it... everybody worries so much about not
> getting any air play. My, my."
