Lyrics
Why is it that civilized humanity
Can make the world so wrong ?
In this hurly-burly of insanity
Our dreams cannot last long.
Weve reached a deadline,
A press headline,
Every sorrow.
Blues value
Is news value
Tomorrow.
Blues
Twentieth century blues
Are getting me down.
Blues
Escape those weary
Twentieth century blues.
Why,
If theres a God in the sky,
Why shouldnt he grin
High
Above this dreary
Twentieth century din ?
In this strange illusion,
Chaos and confusion,
People seem to lose their way.
What is there to strive for,
Love or keep alive for,
Say, hey, hey!
Call it a day ?
Blues
Nothing to win or to lose,
Its getting me down.
Blues
Escape those weary
Twentieth century blues.
Weve reached a deadline,
A press headline,
Every sorrow.
Blues value
Is news value
Tomorrow.
Blues
Nothing to win or to lose,
Its getting me down.
Blues
Escape those dreary
Twentieth century
Blues.
