kid creole and the coconuts - call it a day lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
long time ago
i could walk down the road
there’d be laughter on every corner
and banter and table tournaments
you couldn’t find
any place, any time
that was better at true conviviality

[pre+chorus 1]
but now
n0body talks to you anymore
there’s a dog and a padlock for every door
what’s it for?

[chorus]
call it a day
very soon, anyway, i’ll be gone

[verse 2]
there was a time
when the food for the mind
came from speakers philosophising
and preachers a proselytising
oh those were the days
of such passion and rage
a cornucopia of individuality
[pre+chorus 2]
but now
faces are grim and the streets are bare
seems that all the dissenters have disappeared
very queer!

[chorus]
call it a day
very soon, anyway, i’ll be gone

[bridge]
i don’t want to stay here anymore
i don’t have to play to know the score
what the mind conceals
the heart reveals after all

[verse 3]
long time ago
there were fairs, there were shows
there were tourists with lots of money
and business was always stunning
and you couldn’t find
anywhere, any time
a finer symbol of stabilised economy

[pre+chorus 3]
but now
though all the markets are open still
all the money belongs to that imbecile
on the hill!
[chorus]
call it a day
very soon, anyway, i’ll be gone

[bridge]
i don’t want to stay here anymore
(spurning the thought of it all)
i don’t think it’s safe to know the score
(burned and concerned to the core)
what the mind conceals (nevermore)
the heart reveals after all (nevermore)

[chorus]
call it a day
very soon, anyway, i’ll be gone

[chorus]
call it a day
anyhow, anyway, i’ll be gone
