Twentieth Century Blues |
Why is it that civilized humanity |
Can make the world so wrong? |
In this hurly-burly of insanity |
Our dreams cannot last long |
We’ve reached a deadline |
A press headline, Every sorrow |
Blues value is news value |
Tomorrow |
Blues |
Twentieth century blues |
Are getting me down |
Blues |
Escape those weary |
Twentieth century blues |
Why |
If there’s a God in the sky |
Why shouldn’t He grin |
High |
Above this dreary |
Twentieth century din? |
In this strange illusion |
Chaos and confusion |
People seem to lose their way |
What is there to strive for |
Love or keep alive for |
Say, 'Hey, hey!' |
Call it a day? |
Blues |
Nothing to win or to lose |
It’s getting me down |
Blues |
Escape those weary |
Twentieth century blues |
We’ve reached a deadline |
A press headline |
Every sorrow |
Blues value |
Is news value |
Tomorrow |
Blues |
Nothing to win or to lose |
It’s getting me down |
Blues |
Escape those dreary |
Twentieth century |
Blues |
