Went for a walk down the old road, To see if was there. But there was nobody home at 3 street, And they had sold square. And I remember 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 last forever? Did ya ever think that it get this bad? Did ya ever think that would get so crazy?
Now the chelsea store needs a fix, It's in a of ill repair. And my cuban heels are my feet, to add to my despair. La-di-dahs drove mini in the summertime. (in the summertime) Now they're towed away for on a double yellow line, And can't pay the fine. (did you think) Did you ever think all believe the hype? (did you think) Did you ever think the classes all would back to type? (did you think) Did you think the system ever really got it right? Oh, baby.
They filled us full of illusions and promiscuity, And they led us down class-less road to mediocrity. As we walked down alley way of hope, We we'd found the motherload, But we were led lambs to that promise land, all the debts that we would owe. Once trendies posed for pictures in the summertime. (in the summertime) Not content with taking polaroids, they purchased all the property they could find, And I've sold mine. (did you ever!)
Did ya think that this green and plesant land, (did ya think) end up in the bottom of some garbage can, (did ya think) A full of promises and half-hearted plans. Oh, baby.
Did ya, did ya, did ya think? Did you ever (in the summertime)
Now miseries and groaners moan and reminisce the good old times and whine, whine, whine. (did ya think) Did ya ever think when were really fab, (did ya think) That we'd be looking through a dustbin for a to drag, (did ya think) And on park benches wrapped in plastic bags. Oh, baby.
Did ya ever think that it would get this (did ya think) Did ya think that it would get this way? (did ya think) Did ya ever think that we pay the price for being lazy?
