Went for a walk down the old road, To see if was there. But was nobody home at 3 bywater street, And they had sold 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 think it wouldn't last forever? Did ya ever think that it would get this Did ya think that everything would get so crazy?
Now the chelsea 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. (in the summertime) Now towed away for parking on a double yellow line, And can't pay the fine. (did you think) Did you ever think we'd all the hype? (did you think) Did you ever think the classes all would revert 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 they led us down class-less road to mediocrity. As we walked down that way of hope, We thought found the motherload, But we were led like to that promise land, With all the debts that we owe. Once trendies posed for pictures in the summertime. (in the summertime) Not content with taking polaroids, purchased all the property that they could find, And just sold mine. (did you ever!)
Did ya ever think that 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 ever (in the summertime)
Now miseries and groaners 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) we'd be looking through a dustbin for a dog-end to drag, (did ya think) And sleep on park benches wrapped in bags. Oh, baby.
Did ya ever think that it get this crazy? (did ya think) Did ya ever think that it would get way? (did ya think) Did ya think that we would pay the price for being lazy?
