When The World Is Running Down
|
You Make The Best Of What's Still Around
|
|
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
