Went for a walk the old king's road, To see if was there. But there was nobody at 3 bywater street, And had sold cadogan square. And I remember in my tie dye sweater, And my corduroy flares. As I on doors, And walked down streets that led nowhere.
Ah, did ya ever think it wouldn't forever? Did ya ever think that it would get this Did ya ever that everything would get so crazy?
Now the chelsea drug needs a fix, in a state of ill repair. And my cuban heels are my feet, to add to my despair. La-di-dahs mini cars in the summertime. (in the summertime) Now towed away for parking on a double yellow line, And they pay the fine. (did you think) Did you ever we'd all believe the hype? (did you think) Did you ever the classes all would revert back to type? (did you think) Did you ever think the system ever really got it Oh, baby.
They filled us full of illusions and promiscuity, And they led us that class-less road to mediocrity. As we walked down that way of hope, We we'd found the motherload, But we were led lambs to that promise land, With all the debts we would owe. Once trendies for tourist pictures in the summertime. (in the summertime) Not content taking polaroids, they purchased all the property that they could find, And just sold mine. (did you ever!)
Did ya ever think that this green and land, (did ya think) Would end up in the bottom of garbage can, (did ya think) A full of promises and half-hearted plans. Oh, baby.
Did ya, did ya, did ya ever Did you ever (in the summertime)
Now miseries and groaners and reminisce about the good old times and whine, whine, whine. (did ya think) Did ya ever think when things really fab, (did ya think) That we'd be through a dustbin for a dog-end to drag, (did ya think) And on park benches wrapped in plastic bags. Oh, baby.
Did ya ever think it would get this crazy? (did ya think) Did ya ever that it would get this way? (did ya think) Did ya ever think that we would pay the price for lazy?
