Long Long Way Lyrics

Long Long Way lyrics

Well we've come a long long way, 

Look at everything we know

We're
getting smarter everyday, 

Ah but where's it gonna go

For all the
words that go by, 

I've got a feeling inside

That after it's all
said and done

Though we've come a long long way

This old world's
not much better than it was



Oh it's just like the twenties,
machine guns were plenty

Everyday you'd get shot up all the whisky'd get
bought up

We'd be dancing the night through, just waiting until

The
joke's on you, ah then what do you do



Model T's and Chevies just
loaded with heavies

Shining faces like morning roses, aglow with their
noses

Pressed on your window, just waiting to shine

Your concrete
shoes, to the piano roll blues



We're flying space ships round the
stars

Getting faster by the hour

Pretty soon we'll be on Mars

Build another Ivory tower

Thru all the praise that you borrow

There's still hunger and sorrow and after it's all said and done

Though we've come a long long way

This old world's not much better
than it was



Oh it's just like the twenties, machine guns were
plenty

Everyday you'd get shot up all the whisky'd get bought up

We'd be dancing the night through, just waiting until

The joke's on
you, ah then what do you do



Oh

Model T's and Chevies just
loaded with heavies

Shining faces like morning roses, aglow with their
noses

Pressed on your window, just waiting to shine

Your concrete
shoes, to the piano roll blues
