The Kettle

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?
