The sun never set on the empire Prince Albert came in a can If you expire before you retire And end up an "also-ran" It's fine time to drink tea from China Do drop a line Let me know I am fine Sun in the moonlight, in the moonlight Gone, just like I said The good old days are dead (Better get it through your head) As you harken to The clang of The Yankee Reaper It's like I said The good old days are dead As you harken to The clang of the Yankee Reaper Out in the rude wild abandon The Shah of Iran bought the plan Seen with the Queen he was all smiles He just bailed out the British Isles It's time to drink tea from fine china Just think of him when your light Starts to dim Sun in the moonlight, in the moonlight Gone, just like I said The good old days are dead (Better get it through your head) As you harken to The clang of The Yankee Reaper It's like I said The good old days are dead As you harken to The clang of the Yankee Reaper Harken to the clang of the Yankee Reaper The good old days are dead As you harken to the clang ... |

Monseque
The ghetto's hungry people cry Food is wasted on the hill Hands stretched upwards to the sky That hill seems high and higher still Summer's gone and winter's near The valley's restless, you can hear Seems lest they batter, burn and kill Till their hungry mouths are filled There'll be no city on the hill There might be time to change the course Let's appoint a meeting place Till hill and valley wears the cross And cleanse each other of disgrace This land's a model of the world That's been a dream that's been ignored But let's take haste and settle bills Till their hungry mouths are filled There'll be no city on the hill (Repeat and fade) |

Francisco
We don't hesitate to try and create And then perpatuate fictious impressions Courteous words like "thank you, I'm sorry Please and world you forgive me" Which we once knew Have now become a forgotten thing Of the past But "convict and condemn" in our minds Our bosom pals, without a trial But this wickedness, crookedness Stupid and malicious gile is out of style Can't people construct and try to engage In something to alleviate this present shortage Control the urge to damage And as the people be less savage In this day and age Remember we pass that stage We share disrespect and then we object When people reject us and call us low class Saturday night infideliy's a damn joke We're cussing, we're whoring We're smoking dope Sunday morning we're holier than the pope When we critisize we tend to dramatize Thereby exercising ignorance and folly Why can't we forget about the pride and scrimmage Ignore the old talk and gossip in the village Cease the damn wastage And as the people be less savage In this day and age Remember we pass that stage |

You gave me a dream of love Then you took it away You melted my heart The same way heat loves candle Oh you really hurt my pride When you took me for a ride You left me with more grief Than I can handle Someone will bring another dream for me Someone will bring another dream you see A dream with hope for tomorrow A dream to take away my sorrow Someone will bring another dream for me Oh you layed heaven at my feet Then you took it away Every morning I wake up Hopin' you'll be there Oh I want to scream and shout Gotta let my feelings out 'Cause my blues keeps gettin' bluer Day by day Someone will bring another dream for me Someone will bring another dream you see A dream with hope for tomorrow A dream to take away my sorrow Someone will bring another dream for me You gave me a dream of love Then you took it away You melted my heart The same way heat loves candle Oh I want to scream and shout Gotta let my feelings out 'Cause my blues keeps gettin' bluer Day by day Someone will bring another dream for me Someone will bring another dream you see A dream with hope for tomorrow A dream to take away my sorrow Someone will bring another dream for me |
