| Living our daily lives
|
| Watching the world go round
|
| Talking about the wife
|
| Inviting the neighbours
|
| Money wouldn’t change us we’d be saying
|
| Money wouldn’t make us but we’d be praying
|
| And you’ve thrown our principles away
|
| Cause it’s come your way
|
| The waters hot and clean
|
| It’s wiping the dirt away
|
| The work is very hard but you said you’d stay
|
| Cause after all what would you do
|
| With so much time it just isn’t you
|
| To just let fame and fortune run the show
|
| But we both know
|
| Just remember who you were only yesterday
|
| Cause now you’re speaking down to me
|
| Like I’m a thousand miles away
|
| He was always very kind
|
| Always such a gentleman
|
| But since his lucky day
|
| He wasn’t worth the skin
|
| He was printed on
|
| Money wouldn’t change him he’d be saying
|
| Money wouldn’t take him but he’d be praying
|
| And he’s thrown our principles away
|
| Cause it’s come his way
|
| Just remember who you were only yesterday
|
| Cause now you’re speaking down to me
|
| Like I’m a thousand miles away
|
| Just remember who you were only yesterday
|
| Cause now you’re speaking down to me
|
| Like I’m a thousand miles a thousand miles away
|
| Just remember who you were only yesterday
|
| Only yesterday |
