I went back my home town
|
To the school and walked around
|
And the way it felt
|
It seemed just like yesterday
|
|
From the cradle to the grave
|
Some say we never change
|
No matter how we try
|
We try to rearrange
|
|
Life father so like son
|
It's as if wife we're both as one
|
Just as if our fate was pre-ordained
|
|
In some countries far from here
|
You know the one s we used to fear
|
Are they waiting to return to
|
Those old evil ways
|
|
You can take a correspondance course
|
Be single married or divorced
|
You can psychoanlyze your brain
|
But you know some things will never change
|
|
And what will those people do
|
When Russia starts anew
|
They'll just stand in line
|
All under a different name
|
|
You can listen to those brainwash tapes
|
Take a Jewish, Catholic, Buddhist faith
|
But I'm sure it's gonna be in vain
|
'Cos you know some things will never change
|
|
If their theories all come true
|
Then there's nothin' we can do
|
Where the future lies
|
Well it's not to hard to tell
|
|
But after all is said and done
|
And if the world it lives as one
|
You can bid those old taboo's
|
A fond fare well
|
|
Yes a fond fare well
|
A very long fare well
|
