Blues
Twentieth century blues
They're getting me down
Who's
Escaped 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
Who's
Escaped those weary
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
The press headline
Every sorrow
Blues value
Is news value
Tomorrow
Blues
Twentieth century blues
They're getting me down
Who's
Escaped 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
Who's
Escaped those weary
Twentieth century blues
