Went for a walk down the old road, To see if was there. But there was nobody home at 3 street, And they had sold square. And I remember in my tie dye sweater, And my corduroy flares. As I on doors, And down one-way streets that led nowhere.
Ah, did ya ever think it wouldn't forever? Did ya ever think that it would get this Did ya ever that everything would get so crazy?
Now the chelsea drug store a fix, It's in a of ill repair. And my cuban heels are my feet, to add to my despair. La-di-dahs mini cars in the summertime. (in the summertime) Now they're towed for parking on a double yellow line, And they pay the fine. (did you think) Did you ever we'd all believe the hype? (did you think) Did you ever think the classes all would revert to type? (did you think) Did you ever think the system really got it right? Oh, baby.
They us full of false illusions and promiscuity, And they led us down that road to mediocrity. As we down that alley way of hope, We thought we'd the motherload, But we led like lambs to that promise land, With all the debts that we owe. Once trendies posed for tourist in the summertime. (in the summertime) Not content with taking polaroids, they purchased all the property that they find, And I've just mine. (did you ever!)
Did ya think that this green and plesant land, (did ya think) end up in the bottom of some garbage can, (did ya think) A dustbin full of promises and plans. Oh, baby.
Did ya, did ya, did ya think? Did you ever (in the summertime)
Now and groaners moan and reminisce about the good old times and whine, whine, whine. (did ya think) Did ya ever when things were really fab, (did ya think) That we'd be looking through a dustbin for a to drag, (did ya think) And sleep on park benches wrapped in bags. Oh, baby.
Did ya ever think that it get this crazy? (did ya think) Did ya ever think that it get this way? (did ya think) Did ya ever that we would pay the price for being lazy?
