The wells have gone dry and the water is bad and in the air is acid rain.   There’s war after war and rumors of war from the East. There’s a rumblin in the ground and they’re talkin about the beast Good mothers cry ’cause the rivers run high with the blood of too many sons. ... Some people say peace is on the way but the worst is still to come. chorus: ’cause the prophets wrote about it and Jesus spoke about it and John got to take a look and he told us what he saw and it’s easy to see it’s goin by the book ...     It’s goin by the book. There’s armys in the citys and the missels stand ready for flight. A pale horse rides like the wind across the night. and that rumblin in the desert like thunder gettin closer are the trumpets gettin’ ready to blow? There’s gonna be a shout that will wake the dead we’d better be ready to go chorus     It’s goin by the book       It’s goin by the book
