Ah ah
|
|
Here's a song
|
About living in the past
|
If it was so good then
|
How come it didn't last?
|
If it helps you
|
I'll put it in a phrase
|
Those were the times
|
But these are the days
|
|
These are the days
|
These are the days
|
These are the days
|
These are the days
|
These are the days
|
|
The times you're smiling back on
|
Had that great sitcom
|
It hardly compensated
|
For the terror of the bomb
|
Let me help
|
'Cause you're looking through a haze
|
Those were the times
|
These are the days
|
|
These are the days
|
Hey hey hey
|
These are the days
|
Can you hear me now?
|
These are the days
|
Look around look around look around
|
These are the days
|
|
These are the days
|
Hey hey live today
|
These are the days
|
It's time to put the past away
|
These are the days
|
The more you do the more you say
|
These are the days
|
The more I need to get away
|
|
You're longing for a time
|
there never was
|
Now tell me the truth
|
You're looking for the reason
|
It's because
|
You're fighting for youth
|
But if I have to listen any more
|
To fantasy talk
|
Or any other bug you have
|
I'm leaving
|
|
Now I'm not saying
|
Everything is really great
|
Hey hey hey
|
After sixteen years
|
Of legalised class hate
|
Why waste time
|
Looking back for things to praise?
|
Those were the times huh
|
But these are the days
|
|
These are the days
|
Looking back in history
|
These are the days
|
Time to get contempory
|
These are the days
|
The past is not the place to be
|
|
