Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?                         DADDYSBOY - house's parents
Oh, where have you been, my darling young one?                     ..
I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains,               DISTRACTIONS - house almost wakes up boy again
I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways,              ..
I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests,                   SEXKILLS - turns on woman's life support
I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans,                     SEXKILLS - beds going to operation
I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard,          MATERNITY - coming to baby crash cart scene
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, and it's a hard,    MATERNITY - coin toss; chinese mother learns
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.                               ..

Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what did you see, my darling young one?
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it                 FOREVER - taking smothered baby away
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it,                      AUTOPSY - riding on his motorcyle
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin',                 DADDYSBOY - pain and operation
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin',             AUTOPSY - man with bloody pants
I saw a white ladder all covered with water,                        HUMPTYDUMPTY - manfallsoffroof
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken,           CONTROL - mutecanspeak
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children,         MOBRULE - policeman from nose
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,         AUTOPSY - dying cancer girl hugs him
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.                                ..

And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?                            AUTOPSY - listening to defective valves
And what did you hear, my darling young one?                        ..
I heard the sound of a thunder, it roared out a warnin',            DETOX - House holding pills
Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world,          ..
Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin',              HUMPTYDUMPTY - mother holding hand before operation
Heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin',                     dnr taking musician to mri?
Heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin',
Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter,                    HISTORIES - crazy lady drawing
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley,                  EUPHORIA1 - policeman in alley
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,         EUPHORIA1 - foreman freaks over death
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.                                ..

Oh, who did you meet, my blue-eyed son?
Who did you meet, my darling young one?
I met a young child beside a dead pony,                            CURSED - dead cat
I met a white man who walked a black dog,                          ACCEPTANCE - prisoner walked out
I met a young woman whose body was burning,                        HISTORIES - ice bath
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow,                         AUTOPSY - girl is brave
I met one man who was wounded in love,                             wilson with suitcase
I met another man who was wounded with hatred,                     NOREASON - man who shoots
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,            ..
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.                                   ..

Oh, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?                          KIDS - house thinking what to do next
Oh, what'll you do now, my darling young one?                      ..
I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin',              THREESTORIES - housedying
I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest,               NO REASON - sees result of killing man
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty,           ..
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters,             HOUSEVSGOD - exposes wilson
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison,          ACCEPTANCE - house meets prisoner
Where the executioner's face is always well hidden,                ACCEPTANCE - prisoner bleeds out
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten,                   HISTORIES - bums
Where black is the color, where none is the number,                DNR - watching tube pulled
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it,         CONTROL - lies to transplant board
And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it,          CONTROL - you're my patient
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',
But I'll know my song well before I start singin',
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.
