Went for a down the old king's road, To see if was there. But there was home at 3 bywater street, And had sold cadogan square. And I remember in my tie dye sweater, And my hipster flares. As I on doors, And walked down one-way that led nowhere.
Ah, did ya ever think it last forever? Did ya ever think that it would get bad? Did ya ever that everything would get so crazy?
Now the chelsea drug 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 mini cars in the summertime. (in the summertime) Now they're away for parking on a double yellow line, And they pay the fine. (did you think) Did you think we'd all believe the hype? (did you think) Did you think the classes all would revert back to type? (did you think) Did you ever think the system really got it right? Oh, baby.
They filled us of false illusions and promiscuity, And they led us down that road to mediocrity. As we walked that alley way of hope, We thought found the motherload, But we led like lambs to that promise land, With all the 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 just mine. (did you ever!)
Did ya ever think this green and plesant land, (did ya think) Would end up in the 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 think? (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 a dustbin for a dog-end to drag, (did ya think) And sleep on park benches in plastic bags. Oh, baby.
Did ya think that it would get this crazy? (did ya think) Did ya ever think that it would get this (did ya think) Did ya think that we would pay the price for being lazy?
