Peggy Lee - Everything's Moving Too Fast lyrics

It used to take a farmer a day to get town
Now it takes a minute 'til
His plane comes down
Because everything's movin' too fast
Everything's movin' too fast
You better save your money
Because everything's movin' too fast

You used to eat your spinach
Now you never will
Because you think it's modern to
Take it in a pill
Because everything's movin' too fast
Everything's movin' too fast
You better save your money
Because everything's movin' too fast
You used to talk of rockets
Shooting to the moon
I used to think you were crazy
But I'm taking one at noon
Because everything's movin' too fast
Everything's movin' too fast
You better save your money
Because everything's movin' too fast

I had a covered wagon, then a model t
I put them in the junkyard
They don't jump enough for me
Because everything's movin' too fast
Everything's movin' too fast
You better save your money
Because everything's movin' too fast

Now papa used to get his kicks
From music that was sweet
Now he gets his kicks from
A boogie woogie beat
Because everything's movin' too fast
Everything's movin' too fast
You better save your money
Because everything's movin' too fast

Slow down slow down
Slow down everything's movin' too fast
