    Lyrics
    Feel the temperature risin'
    In a relentless rain
    Everyone's out to do
    What they can't do in vain
    And they're reachin' out for mercy
    As they go their own way
    They need a little bit of comfort
    In these Desperate Days

    There's a Wall Street guy
    Up there on the window ledge
    Screamin', throwing money
    Leaning over the edge
    You'd think the ones holding trump
    Would either call or raise
    But their just as likely to jump
    In these Desperate Days

    And through the Desperate Days and the Desperate Nights
    There's a reckless abandon 'neath these city lights
    From the bedroom quarrels to the mean street fights
    These are Desperate Days, Lord and Desperate Nights
    Desperate Days and Desperate Nights

    I saw an old lady faint
    Fell right out of her hat
    Nobody even noticed
    She just layed there like that
    'Till the street sweepers came
    And they swept her away
    Ain't no one got a conscience
    In these Desperate Days

    See the fireworks flare
    And hear the marching band blow
    Say hooray for this country
    For the good life that we know
    While the street people huddle
    See their eyes all aglaze
    With the frozen emotion
    Of these Desperate Days

    And through the Desperate Days and the Desperate Nights
    There's a reckless abandon 'neath these city lights
    From the bedroom quarrels to the mean street fights
    These are Desperate Days, Lord and Desperate Nights
    Desperate Days and Desperate Nights

    All my debts are collected
    All my deeds are confessed
    If I look unaffected
    I'm just doin' my best
    To make sense of a world
    In a halcyon haze
    I'm just tryin' to move forward
    In these Desperate Days

    And though the banners still stand
    And the streamers still fly
    Man this ain't no parade here
    It's just people passin' by
    And this man still stumbles
    And this man still prays
    For a litte bit of comfort
    In these Desperate Days

    And through the Desperate Days and the Desperate Nights
    There's a reckless abandon 'neath these city lights
    From the bedroom quarrels to the mean street fights
    These are Desperate Days, Lord and Desperate Nights
    Desperate Days and Desperate Nights
