Three Dog Night was an American rock and roll band active from 1968 to 1975. Their first gold record was "One" in 1969, followed by "Easy To Be Hard" from the musical Hair. They had three number one songs: "Mama Told Me Not to Come," "Joy to the World", and "Black and White". The band included three lead vocalists — Danny Hutton, Chuck Negron, and Cory Wells — and Michael Allsup on guitar, Floyd Sneed on drums, Joe Schermie (from the Cory Wells Blues Band) on bass, and Jimmy Greenspoon on keyboards. The band was the protegé of Beach Boys producer, composer, vocalist, and instrumentalist Brian Wilson, and at the time went under the name Redwood.

The Writings On The Wall Lyrics

Three Dog Night

(D.Troiano)
Lookin' out my window, it was a smoggy afternoon,
I breathen in some air, I couldn't get in too soon.
I turned on the news, learned of some food I shouldn't eat,
Don't you run around today, you might pass out in the heat.
Writing's on the wall, facts are in the books,
Nothin' lost is nothin' gained,
It seems there's writings on the wall.
Yeah
I just can't understand how this world is run,
Well, people say that war is bad, but they keep on makin' guns.
Ever since the world began it's always been the same,
'Cause hist'ry'll always tell the truth
War is such a shame.
So the writing's on the wall you can't outrace your fate,
What will be will always be, so the writing's on the wall.
Facts are in the books, nothin' lost is nothin' gained,
Writing's on the wall.
Writing's on the wall, facts are in the books,
Nothin' lost is nothin' gained, so there's writings on the wall.
Writing's on the wall, facts I learned too late,
What will be will always be, writings on the wall.
You can't outrace your fate, so what will be will always be,
There's writings on the wall, the lesson's learned too late,
Nothin' lost is nothin' gained cause the writing's on the wall.
Facts I learned too late, so what will be will always be,
Writing's on the wall, you can't outrace your fate
So what will be will always be, cause the writing's on the wall.
