Libertines The The Good Old Days Lyrics

The Good Old Days Lyrics

If Queen Bodecia is long dead and gone
Well the spirit in her childrens
childrens children still lives on
And if Elvis he was the king had his piece
of the pie
Well now his century's over im having mine

But if you've
lost your faith in love and music the end wont be long
Because if its gone
for you then i too may lose it and that would be wrong
You know ive tried so
hard to keep myself from falling
Back into my bad old ways
And it chars my
heart to always hear you calling
Calling for the good old days
Because
there were no good old days
These are the good old days

And its not
about, tenements and needles
And all the elvis in the eyes and the backs of
their minds
Daisy chains and school yard games
And a list of things we
said we'd do tomorrow

The arcadian dream has all fallen through
But
the Albion sails on course
So man the decks and hoist the rigging
Because
the pig mans found the source
And theres twelve rude boys on the
oars
(they're singing "row row row")
