Swansong |
| The day will come when people can be clean |
| Clean as the sun |
| When we have learned that dirty tricks don’t pay |
| And crime is no fun |
| The day that honesty and kindliness and friendliness |
| Are how we want to be |
| Will be a day worth waiting for |
| Obviously |
| Until that day, I’ll have to shaft and graft |
| Like everybody does |
| I’ll have to lie, and cheat, and rob |
| And gobble, obviously, because |
| You cannot make a better world |
| 'Til everybody plays along |
| It’s not utopia running in a gang of one |
| It’s a swansong |
| These dirty ways I may embrace today |
| But it’s just for today |
| When things improve I’m going to live a laugh |
| Live another way |
| I’ll walk in light, do everybody proud |
| Give everything away |
| Until that day I’ll have to live for me |
| Obviously |
| The day will come when people can be strong |
| Strong as the sun |
| When we have learned our dirty tricks don’t pay |
| And evil’s no fun |
| That day of honesty and kindliness and friendliness |
| And decency |
| Will come the day after the day I live for me |
| Obviously |
