Went for a walk the old king's road, To see if was there. But was nobody home at 3 bywater street, And they had cadogan square. And I myself in my tie dye sweater, And my hipster flares. As I on doors, And down one-way streets that led nowhere.
Ah, did ya ever think it wouldn't last Did ya ever think it would get this bad? Did ya think that everything would get so crazy?
Now the chelsea drug store a fix, in a state of ill repair. And my heels are hurting my feet, to add to my despair. La-di-dahs drove mini in the summertime. (in the summertime) Now they're away for parking on a double yellow line, And can't pay the fine. (did you think) Did you ever we'd all believe the hype? (did you think) Did you ever think the classes all revert back to type? (did you think) Did you ever the system ever really got it right? Oh, baby.
filled us full of false illusions and promiscuity, And they led us that class-less road to mediocrity. As we walked down alley way of hope, We thought we'd the motherload, But we were led like to that promise land, With all the that we would owe. Once posed for tourist pictures in the summertime. (in the summertime) Not content with polaroids, they purchased all the property that they could find, And I've sold mine. (did you ever!)
Did ya ever think that this green and land, (did ya think) Would end up in the bottom of some can, (did ya think) A dustbin of promises and half-hearted plans. Oh, baby.
Did ya, did ya, did ya ever Did you ever (in the summertime)
Now and groaners moan and reminisce about the good old times and whine, whine, whine. (did ya think) Did ya ever think things were 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 think that it would get this (did ya think) Did ya ever that we would pay the price for being lazy?
