Roger Daltrey - Times Changed lyrics
[Roger Daltrey - Times Changed lyrics]
Everybody knows that times changed
Hey yeah times changed
Some boys look older
And the young ones smile in jest
Lads born to be the chosen one
While the wise man sings in the cuckoo's nest
I walked the West End late last night
After seein' an old friend of mine
We talked about this place and the way it was
When a bloke could get a break before these
Times changed ooh, these times changed
Hey, these times changed
Whoa, these times changed
I heard a DJ spin in Brixton
Some of that fresh massive attack
Here in the house of mass consumption
Where the ecstasy goes fast
On the screen is this month's fashion
Lots of leather and a tattooed breast
Better this than some guru
Who's trying to teach you how to live
When you know
Times changed whoa, times changed
Yeah, you know times changed
Ooh, times changed hey hey hey hey yeah
I saw a bastard slap his girl around
I said, "Man, have you gone mad?
What's gotten into you
That's makin' you so bad?
You think love is anything when you
Can't get work you think life is on TV"
Then he turned up some of that speed metal
And said, "This is what I think"
I rode the East End early yesterday
I was hit by the way it's changed
From the days of Krays in my teenage years
When we all knew our place
Now the welfare state is a state of wealth
For some the hope is gone
And a cardboard box in Westminster is hard to
Call a home but you know
Times changed ooh, times changed
Oh, times changed whoa, times changed
Ooh
Everybody knows everybody knows
They know that times changed
Hey yeah times changed
Some boys look older
And the young ones smile in jest
Lads born to be the chosen one
While the wise man sings in the cuckoo's nest
I walked the West End late last night
After seein' an old friend of mine
We talked about this place and the way it was
When a bloke could get a break before these
Times changed ooh, these times changed
Hey, these times changed
Whoa, these times changed
I heard a DJ spin in Brixton
Some of that fresh massive attack
Here in the house of mass consumption
Where the ecstasy goes fast
On the screen is this month's fashion
Lots of leather and a tattooed breast
Better this than some guru
Who's trying to teach you how to live
When you know
Times changed whoa, times changed
Yeah, you know times changed
Ooh, times changed hey hey hey hey yeah
I saw a bastard slap his girl around
I said, "Man, have you gone mad?

And a cardboard box in Westminster is hard to

Oh, times changed whoa, times changed
