Went for a walk the old king's road, To see if was there. But there was nobody at 3 bywater street, And had sold cadogan square. And I myself in my tie dye sweater, And my hipster flares. As I on doors, And down one-way streets that led nowhere.
Ah, did ya ever think it last forever? Did ya ever that it would get this bad? Did ya ever think everything would get so crazy?
Now the chelsea drug store a fix, in a state of ill repair. And my heels are hurting my feet, to add to my despair. La-di-dahs mini cars in the summertime. (in the summertime) Now they're towed away for on a double yellow line, And they pay the fine. (did you think) Did you think we'd all believe the hype? (did you think) Did you ever think the classes all would revert back to (did you think) Did you ever think the ever really got it right? Oh, baby.
They filled us of false illusions and promiscuity, And they led us down class-less road to mediocrity. As we walked down that way of hope, We thought found the motherload, But we led like lambs to that promise land, all the debts that we would owe. Once trendies for tourist pictures in the summertime. (in the summertime) Not content with taking polaroids, they purchased all the property they could find, And I've just mine. (did you ever!)
Did ya think that this green and plesant land, (did ya think) Would end up in the of some garbage can, (did ya think) A dustbin of promises and half-hearted plans. Oh, baby.
Did ya, did ya, did ya think? Did you think? (in the summertime)
Now miseries and groaners moan and about the good old times and whine, whine, whine. (did ya think) Did ya ever think when things really fab, (did ya think) That we'd be through a dustbin for a dog-end to drag, (did ya think) And on park benches wrapped in plastic bags. Oh, baby.
Did ya ever think that it would get crazy? (did ya think) Did ya ever think that it would get this (did ya think) Did ya ever that we would pay the price for being lazy?
