Here We Are In The Years Lyrics

Here We Are In The Years

Now that the holidays have come

 They can relax and watch the sun

 Rise above all of the beautiful things

 They've done.

 

 Go to the country take the dog

 Look at the sky without the smog

 See the world laugh at the farmers feeding hogs

 Eat hot dogs.

 

 What a pity that the people from the city

 Can't relate to the slower things

 That the country brings.

 

 Time itself is bought and sold.

 The spreading fear of growing old

 Contains a thousand foolish games

 That we play.

 

 While people planning trips to stars

 Allow another boulevard to claim

 A quiet country lane

 It's insane.

 

 So the subtle face is a loser

 This time around.

 Here we are in the years

 Where the showman shifts the gears

 Lives become careers

 Children cry in fear

 "Let us out of here!"
