The Kinks - Do You Remember Walter? lyrics
[The Kinks - Do You Remember Walter? lyrics]
Walter remember when the world was young and
All the girls knew Walter's name? Walter
Isn't it a shame the way
Our little world has changed?
Do you remember, Walter
Playing cricket in the thunder and the rain?
Do you remember, Walter
Smoking cigarettes behind your garden gate?
Yes, Walter was my mate
But Walter, my old friend, where are you now?
Walter's name walter
Isn't it a shame the way
Our little world has changed?
Do you remember, Walter
How we said we'd fight the
World so we'd be free?
We'd save up all our money and we'd buy
A boat and sail away to sea
But it was not to be
I knew you then, but do I know you now?
Walter you are just an echo of a
World I knew so long ago walter
If you saw me now you
Wouldn't even know my name
I bet you're fat and
Married and you're always
Home in bed by half past eight
And if I talked about the old times
You'd get bored and you'd have
Nothing more to say yes, people often change
But memories of people can remain
All the girls knew Walter's name? Walter
Isn't it a shame the way
Our little world has changed?
Do you remember, Walter
Playing cricket in the thunder and the rain?
Do you remember, Walter
Smoking cigarettes behind your garden gate?
Yes, Walter was my mate
But Walter, my old friend, where are you now?
Walter's name walter
Isn't it a shame the way
Our little world has changed?
Do you remember, Walter
How we said we'd fight the
World so we'd be free?
We'd save up all our money and we'd buy
A boat and sail away to sea
But it was not to be
I knew you then, but do I know you now?
Walter you are just an echo of a
World I knew so long ago walter
If you saw me now you
Wouldn't even know my name
I bet you're fat and
Married and you're always
Home in bed by half past eight
And if I talked about the old times
You'd get bored and you'd have
Nothing more to say yes, people often change
But memories of people can remain
