Went for a walk the old king's road, To see if was there. But there was nobody at 3 bywater street, And they had sold square. And I remember in my tie dye sweater, And my hipster flares. As I on doors, And walked down one-way streets led nowhere.
Ah, did ya think it wouldn't last forever? Did ya ever think that it would get this Did ya ever think that everything would get so
Now the drug store needs a fix, in a state of ill repair. And my heels are hurting my feet, to add to my despair. La-di-dahs drove cars in the summertime.

Did ya ever that it would get this crazy? (did ya think) Did ya ever think that it would get this (did ya think) Did ya ever think that we would pay the for being lazy?
