HUMAN KINDNESS*

A stranger holds an umbrella shielding a police officer, who is saluting the funeral procession of a fellow cop.  The man and the officer stood there for half an hour.

Broken windows

And empty hallways

A pale dead moon in a sky streaked with gray

Human kindness

Is overflowin'

And I think it's goin' to rain today

Scarecrows dressed

In the latest styles

With frozen smiles to chase love away

Human kindness

Is overflowin'

And I think it's goin' to rain today

Lonely

Lonely

Tin can at my feet

Kick it down the street

And that's the way to treat a friend

Right before me

The signs implore me

Help the needy and show them the way

Human kindness is overflowin'

And I think it's goin' to rain today
