The Good Old Days |
Queen Boadicea is long dead and gone |
Still the spirit |
In her children’s children’s children |
It lives on |
If you’ve lost your faith in love of music |
Oh the end won’t be long |
Because if it’s gone for you then I too may lose it |
And that would be wrong |
You know I’ve tried so hard to keep myself from falling |
Back into my bad old ways |
And it chars my heart to always hear you calling |
Calling for the good old days |
Because there were no good old days |
These are the good old days |
It’s not about, tenements and needles |
And all the evils in their eyes |
And the backs of their minds |
Daisy chains and school yard games |
And a list of things we said we’d do tomorrow |
A list of things we said we’d do tomorrow |
The Arcadian dream has all fallen through |
But the Albion sails on course |
So man the decks and hoist the rigging |
Because the pig mans found the source |
And there’s twelve rude boys on the oars |
