Six Days -- DJ Shadow

At the starting of the week  At summit talks you'll hear them speak 
It's only Monday  Negotiations breaking down  See those leaders start to frown  It's sword and gun day   Tomorrow never comes until it's too late 


You could be sitting taking lunch   The news will hit you like a punch 
It's only Tuesday  You never thought we'd go to war  After all the things we saw It's April Fools' day   Tomorrow never comes until it's too late 
 
You hear a whistling overhead   Are you alive or are you dead? 
It's only Thursday   You feel a shaking on the ground  A billion candles burn around  Is it your birthday?  
Tomorrow never comes until it's too late 


This is a remix of a 1971 song by the short-lived UK group Colonel Bagshot called "Six Day War." The song is about war and regret, with the refrain, "Tomorrow never comes until it's too late."                                                                                         (songfacts)


              


The Six-Day War was fought between June 5 and 10, 1967, by Israel and the neighboring states of Egypt , Jordan, and Syria. After a period of high tension between Israel and its neighbors, the war began on June 5 with Israel launching surprise air strikes against Arab forces. The outcome was a swift and decisive Israeli victory. Israel took effective control of the Gaza Stripand the Sinai Peninsula from Egypt, the West Bank and East Jerusalem from Jordan, and the Golan Heights from Syria.                                                 (wikipedia)
