The Great Depression |
| I think we must have all gone mad |
| Maybe right turned over |
| They promise us the earth |
| Instead we’ve got the great depression |
| Now you’re free and easy with the base |
| You blame your brothers and sisters |
| And neurotics say «sod the rest» |
| It’s the new dissention |
| Into the abyss |
| By pushing forwards |
| It’s always down |
| It’s a desperate war |
| You’re trying to blow yourselves up You don’t care who you stand… with the help about |
| Hey hey — well that’s not the way |
| No sense or reason in your fussing and fighting |
| And your violent obsession |
| Who’s ever really left feeling fine |
| After the great depression? |
| No sense of purpose in the competion |
| Keeping up with the Jones’s |
| You buy a house, |
| You buy a car |
| You buy a marriage and a bed of roses |
| Into the abyss |
| By pushing forwards |
| It’s always down |
| It’s a desperate war |
| You’re trying to blow yourselves up You don’t care who you stand … with the help about |
| Hey hey — well that’s not the way |
