white suns - a year without summer lyrics
in the spring of 1315
there began an era of unpredictable weather
it did not lift until 1851
you remember 1816 as the year without a summer
june 1816
a sudden snowstorm blankets all the country side
so mary sh-lly had to stay inside
and she wrote frankenstein
oh 1816 was the year without a summer
grain couldn’t ripen under these conditions, no
it was brought in-doors in urns and pots
it’d go from 95 degrees to freezing within hours
a brutal struggle for the people and the starving livestock
during the most sever years of this little ice age
we looked for scapegoats to blame
many people tried to blame it all
on a vast freemason conspiracy
or benjamin franklin and his experiments with electricity
the eruption of the volcano tambora
blanketed the earth with ash
that was the real cause discovered by some explorer
years later, looking back at the past
i will give you
my red color
to take away your sickly pallor
for you were very choleric of complexion
please beware the mounting sun
and all dejection
1816 was the year without a summer
