Went for a walk down the old road, To see if was there. But there was 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 walked 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 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 they're away for parking on a double yellow line, And can't pay the fine. (did you think) Did you ever think we'd all believe the (did you think) Did you ever think the classes all revert back to type? (did you think) Did you ever think the system ever really got it Oh, baby.
They filled us full of false and promiscuity, And led us down that class-less road to mediocrity. As we walked down that way of hope, We we'd found the motherload, But we led like lambs to that promise land, With all the debts that we owe. Once trendies for tourist pictures in the summertime. (in the summertime) Not content with taking polaroids, purchased all the property that they could find, And I've sold mine. (did you ever!)
Did ya ever that this green and plesant 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 think? Did you think? (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 when things really fab, (did ya think) That we'd be through a dustbin for a dog-end to drag, (did ya think) And sleep on benches wrapped in plastic bags. Oh, baby.
Did ya ever that it would get this crazy? (did ya think) Did ya ever that it would get this way? (did ya think) Did ya think that we would pay the price for being lazy?
