    Story Behind the Song
    The lyrics sang themselves through me! The verses and the bridge
    in two separate places...the bridge in a M.A.S.H tent in a peace
    encampment in I.U.'s Dunn Meadow "free speech zone" - the verses
    on a brick wall of Bloomington, IN's Peoples' PARK...
    The very able Steve Johnson, Ron Keithe, & the phenomenal Chris
    Hattingh helped me take the song from the street to the planet!

    Lyrics
    Wave after wave, I see wave after wave of doom
    Wave after wave, I see wave after wave of doom
    But, it's alright, I see sunlight, glinting through the gloom

    Wave after wave, I see wave after wave of hate
    Wave after wave, I see wave after wave of hate
    But, don't you fall apart, you know, if you have heart,
    then it's not too late

    When the reckoning comes
    When the reckoning comes
    When the reckoning comes
    All the bums will be saints
    All the saints will be bums
    When the reckoning comes

    When the reckoning comes
    When the reckoning comes
    When the reckoning comes
    Who here wants to be caught
    Beating on death's war drums?
    When the reckoning comes...

    Wave after wave, I see wave after wave of fire
    Wave after wave, I see wave after wave of fire
    But, don't you toss and turn, you know, you will not burn
    Unless you are a liar...

    Wave after wave, I see wave after wave of doom
    Wave after wave, I see wave after wave of doom
    But, it's alright, I see sunlight, glinting through the gloom
