There’s not much you can get for a nickel There’s not much you can get for a dime There’s not a lot of value in a dollar anymore Unless you spend a million at a time Oh oh oh oh you easy rider Wha ah ah what happened to your soul The land of milk and honey The home of Rock & Roll What became of the America Buffalo What became of the America Buffalo From the Bowery slums to the Halls of Montezuma From Hollywood to the great Grand Coolee Dam Liberty inspired the greatest hopes of man Were all those hopes just castles built on sand Oh oh oh oh you easy rider Wha ah ah what happened to your soul The land of milk and honey The home of Rock & Roll What became of the America Buffalo What became of the America Buffalo You’ll never find out where you are going Unless you know where you have been An infinity of distraction, seductions of the skin Leads to a world where nothing is a sin Oh oh oh oh you easy rider Wha ah ah what happened to your soul The land of milk and honey The home of Rock & Roll What became of the America Buffalo What became of the America Buffalo

We buy and sell down at Sharkey’s Parade Paracetamol and cheap cherryade Sometimes the difference Is so hard to tell Heaven can be Hell with Jesus and Jezebel Snapchat romance and instant affairs Vodka and comedy, thoughts and prayers Its a kind of suicide Slowly killing time Heaven can be Hell with Jesus and Jezebel It’s all right here on real TV Phoney is the new reality Gossip and opinion This week’s lucky million Heaven can Hell with Jesus and Jezebel

There’s a fox in the chicken run, A diamond down the loo The scarecrow’s fallen over, don’t know what to do There’s a tattered coat in the yard hanging off a stick Trainers on a power line thrown up by a dick There’s weevil in the cotton field, poison in the well The microwave just caught on fire, the pick up’s shot to hell Things are not looking good Things are not looking good Life don’t go the way it should Things are not looking good. Momma’s in the counting house eating curds and whey Poppa’s in the barrel house each and every day My baby brother’s in the barn cooking up the meth Little sister’s on the own, she’s tweeting bout herself I tell them of the benefits of staying on at school They shake their heads and say I’m just a crazy old fool Things are not looking good Things are not looking good Life don’t go the way it should Things are not looking good The azaleas are overgrown the clematis is parched Arthritis is my newest friend I’ve got a fallen arch Relative to lots of folks I’m living like a king I know it’s just a bubble, a bubble that I’m in A lepton fired in CERN arrived before it left Albert Einstein’s universe is just about to melt I said things not looking good Yeah things are not looking good Life don’t go work out like it should Things are not looking good When I started on this road I looked like Yves Montand Danced like Fred Astaire sang like Sarah Vaughn Keeping up the vanity you’re howling at the moon A stranger said the other day I’m like an ancient ruin The populis is polarised, sense has flown away New shit always happens I wish it all away Things are not looking good Things are not looking good Life don’t go the way it should Things are not looking good Things are not looking good Things are not looking good

You can take the decorations down Bring the chairs in off the lawn This party’s good as over now Everybody’s going home You can trust me every inch on this one darling You can have my word Just put the dream down darling And nobody gets hurt We’ve done everything we could here Gone right out on the wire You sang just like a nightingale But they still won’t have you in the choir We could stick around forever darling But it’s never gonna work So put the dream down darling And nobody gets hurt The sky is turning The sky is turning red So leave the silent to the almost being said The rain falls on the living and the dead And the stranger sleeping in your bed It’s not what you hold onto Doesn’t matter what you lose You can give it all away It only matters what you choose You can trust me every inch on this one darling You can have my word Just put the dream down darling And nobody gets hurt

When the moon is beaming Starlight streaming I hear you call my name I rise to find you But in the dark I’m blind to your light When you call my name Your footsteps tread Soft like a dove As the silence sounds In words of love So sweet When you say my name In the stillest hour Faintly I hear A whispering sound As I tune my ear To you When you say my name Take me, unbreak me Never forsake me Hold me, enfold me Forever I don’t want to let go I hear you call my name Take me, unbreak me Never forsake me Hold me, enfold me Forever I don’t want to let go I hear you call my name I hear you calling When dark is falling I hear you say my name I rise to find you But in the dark I’m blind to your light When you call my name Your footsteps tread Soft like a dove As the silence sounds In words of love So sweet When you say my name Take me, unbreak me Never forsake me Hold me, enfold me Forever I don’t want to let go I hear you call my name Take me, unbreak me Never forsake me Hold me, enfold me Forever I don’t want to let go I hear you call my name

Just a perfect day Drink sangria in the park And then later, when it gets dark We go home Just a perfect day Feed animals in the zoo Then later a movie, too And then home Oh, it's such a perfect day I'm glad I spent it with you Oh, such a perfect day You just keep me hanging on You just keep me hanging on Just a perfect day Problems all left alone Weekenders on our own It's such fun Just a perfect day You made me forget myself I thought I was someone else Someone good Oh, it's such a perfect day I'm glad I spent it with you Oh, such a perfect day You just keep me hanging on You just keep me hanging on You're going to reap just what you sow You're going to reap just what you sow You're going to reap just what you sow You're going to reap just what you sow
