Living In These Hard Times
Lyricist:Ian Scott Anderson
The bomb's in the china, the fat's in the fire There's no turkey left on the table The commuters return on the six o'clock flier There's no bale of hay for the stable
Well, the light it is failing along the green belt As we follow the hard road signs Semi-detached in our suburban mess We're living in these hard times
Well, the fly's in the milk and the cat's in the stew Another bun in the oven, oh, what to do? We laugh and we sing and try to bring A pound from your pocket, good day to you Oh, these hard times
The politician sat on the wall And prayed with the union game Someone slapped the wrists on our deficit Not a penny left to our name
Oh, the times are hard and the credit's lean And they toss and they turn in sleep And the line they take is the line they make Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com But it's not the line they keep
Well the fly's in the milk and the cat's in the stew Another bun in the oven, oh, what to do? We laugh and we sing and try to bring A pound from your pocket, good day to you Oh, these hard times
The cow jumped over yesterday's moon And the lock ran away with the key You know what you like and you like what you know But there is no jam for tea
Well the light it is failing along the green belt As we follow the hard road signs Semi-detached in our suburban mess We're living in these hard times
Well the fly's in the milk and the cat's in the stew Another bun in the oven, oh, what to do? We laugh and we sing and try to bring A pound from your pocket, good day to you Oh, these hard times
