Hard Times |
And these are hard times |
Ooh, getting better |
Hard times |
Ooh, ooh! |
Ooh! |
I straighten out |
And shake out that drag |
You touch and go |
But I’m catching you |
Spare a dime |
I nicked 1000p |
It’s taste is sweet |
On bike |
Now Billy grab the goods |
You stash that cash |
And you pedal away |
The only act of revolution left |
In this collective world |
So, look, don’t talk |
Baby don’t turn away |
You look alright |
And I feel O. K |
If things are like this |
Then maybe we’ll stay |
Turn away |
Turn away |
Turn away, yeah, yeah |
Well I’m dressed in blue |
Oh, she stops the street |
The day rolls up |
And all the bulls see red |
Like that pole |
And taste the ground below |
It’s taste is sweet |
Brush your tooth |
And wipe the night away |
It’s taste is sour, the dreams of fright |
But I swear |
Oh I swear right now |
Ain’t it bittersweet |
(I think that I believe) |
Yeah, look, don’t talk |
Don’t turn away |
You look alright |
And I feel O. K |
If things are like this |
Then maybe we’ll stay |
Turn away |
Don’t turn away |
Turn away, yeah, yeah |
These are hard times |
Ooh, getting better |
Hard times |
Ooh, we’re getting better |
Hard times |
Ooh, getting better |
Hard times |
Ooh, we’re getting better now |
(Oooh!) |
Oh, I’ve been lying |
In the long grass too long |
Pushing back, the psychic waste |
Hit that switch |
And knock the daylights out |
Taste is sweet |
Oh walk away |
Walking through that door |
It’s open wide |
All other options closed |
Let me say |
Oh let me say right here |
I’ll dig my ditch |
And keep my head down through these |
Hard times |
Ooh, getting better |
Hard times |
Ooh, we’re getting better |
Hard times |
Ooh, we’re getting better |
Hard times |
Ooh, they’re getting better |
Now |
Hard times (times, times, times…) |
