peter straker - the day the talkies came lyrics

Loading...

you could laugh till you cried
you could lose yourself a while
in the silent screen

you’d forget where you’d been
what you’d seen
you were part of the silver screen

all the world just p-ssed you by
you just sat there starry-eyed
as the lady of the keys

added atmosphere with ease by her expertise
and the hero got his man
while the keystone cops were still trying to find the gang

all the world just p-ssed you by

you just sat there starry-eyed
ba-ba-da-ba-dum
ba-ba-da-ba-dum

and then the day came when those
talking pictures came to town
this innovation had people talking

for miles around
they had forgotten the thrills they had seen
when men like chaplin had come to the screen
gone was the silence that once was a dream

the day the talkies came to town

the day the talkies came to town
the day the talkies came to town
the day the talkies came to town!

you could laugh till you cried
you could lose yourself a while in the silent screen
you’d forget where you’d been, what you’d seen:
you were part of the silver screen

all the world just p-ssed you by
you just sat there starry-eyed
ba-ba-da-ba-dum
ba-ba-da-ba-dum
ba-ba-da-ba-dum

then came the day when those
talking pictures came to town

this innovation had people talking
for miles around
they had forgotten the thrills they had seen
when men like chaplin had come to the screen

gone was the silence that once was a dream
the day the talkies came to town
the day the talkies came to town
the day the talkies came to town
