| He’s not the only one
|
| To think that things are going wrong
|
| And all around is only second best
|
| Time was when all was fair
|
| And we built solid castles in the air
|
| He said that back to back in time’s the way to go
|
| Better in my day
|
| I hear everybody say
|
| But then they’ll still be saying it tomorrow
|
| It’s so hard to take it
|
| When your time is over
|
| Yes it’s hard to take it
|
| When you try to remember
|
| Better in my day, in my way, can’t you see
|
| Better in my way, here to-day, don’t you see
|
| I remember well he said
|
| When great men led the way instead
|
| Of manicure and media-hugging style
|
| But I don’t know what to do
|
| From now on we’ll always lose
|
| He said that back to back in time’s the way to go

| Oh better in my day, better in my way… |
