I started feeling blue
|
back in 1972
|
barefoot in the street
|
I had patches on my jeans
|
|
and high up in the hills
|
they were nodding out on pills and booze
|
a ?odawful sad affair?
|
and the lights were there to thrill you
|
|
my oh my
|
we live from time to time
|
and day by day
|
it? the modern way
|
look at me I? speeding through
|
self obsessive
|
just like you
|
we can smile
|
oh yeah we can smile
|
|
1984
|
and school was out for summer
|
I was hot for teacher
|
well you should have seen our double feature
|
|
started feeling fine
|
in the winter of 1989
|
such an underrated year
|
but it? gone gone gone
|
|
my oh my
|
we live from time to time
|
and day to day
|
it? the only way I know
|
look at me I? speeding through
|
a self obsessive just like you
|
we can dance
|
we can dance the days away
|
|
1999
|
it? the end of modern time
|
there? panic in your eyes
|
so if you can? get muscles
|
then you better get yourself a tan
|
and be a real man
|
cos the heroes that you worshipped
|
are all gone gone gone
|
|
my oh my
|
we live from time to time
|
and day to day
|
it? the modern way
|
look at me I? speeding through
|
self obsessed I? just like you
|
we can dance
|
we can dance the night away
