(Sting)
|
Turn on my V.C.R.
|
Same one I've had for years
|
James Brown on the Tammy show
|
Same tape I've had for years
|
I sit in my old car
|
Same one I've had for years
|
Old battery's running down
|
It ran for years and years
|
|
Turn on the radio
|
The static hurts my ears
|
Tell me where would I go
|
I ain't been out in years
|
Turn on the stereo
|
It's played for years and years
|
An Otis Redding song
|
It's all I own
|
|
When the world is running down
|
You make the best of what's still around
|
When the world is running down
|
You make the best of what's still around
|
|
Plug in my M.C.I
|
To excercise my brain
|
Make records on my own
|
Can't go out in the rain
|
Pick up the telephone
|
I've listened here for years
|
No one to talk to me
|
I've listened here for years
|
|
When the world is running down
|
You make the best of what's still around
|
When the world is running down
|
You make the best of what's still around
|
|
When I feel lonely here
|
Don't waste my time with tears
|
I run 'Deep Throat' again
|
It ran for years and years
|
Don't like the food I eat
|
The cans are running out
|
Same food for years and years
|
I hate the food I eat
|
|
When the world is running down
|
You make the best of what's still around
|
When the world is running down
|
You make the best of what's still around
|
|
When the world is running down
|
You make the best of what's still around
|
When the world is running down
|
You make the best of what's still around
|
