The Story Of Those Were The Days
| Jukebox Tebordet |
| melodin i midiformat |
| Once upon a time there was a tavern |
| Where we used to raise a glass or two |
| Remember how we laughed away the hours |
| And dreamed of all the great things we would do |
| Those were the days my friend |
| We thought they'd never end |
| We'd sing and dance forever and a day |
| We'd live the life we choose |
| We'd fight and never lose |
| For we were young and sure to have our way. |
| La la la la... |
| Those were the days, oh yes those were the days |
| Then the busy years went rushing by us |
| We lost our starry notions on the way |
| If by chance I'd see you in the tavern |
| We'd smile at one another and we'd say |
| Those were the days my friend |
| We thought they'd never end |
| We'd sing and dance forever and a day |
| We'd live the life we choose |
| We'd fight and never lose |
| For we were young and sure to have our way. |
| La la la la... |
| Those were the days, oh yes those were the days |
| Just tonight I stood before the tavern |
| Nothing seemed the way it used to be |
| In the glass I saw a strange reflection |
| Was that lonely woman really me |
| Those were the days my friend |
| We thought they'd never end |
| We'd sing and dance forever and a day |
| We'd live the life we choose |
| We'd fight and never lose |
| For we were young and sure to have our way. |
| La la la la... |
| Those were the days, oh yes those were the days |
| Through the door there came familiar laughter |
| I saw your face and heard you call my name |
| Oh my friend we're older but no wiser |
| For in our hearts the dreams are still the same |
| Those were the days my friend |
| We thought they'd never end |
| We'd sing and dance forever and a day |
| We'd live the life we choose |
| We'd fight and never lose |
| For we were young and sure to have our way.La la la la... |
| Those were the days, oh yes those were the days |

Happy birthday, Leonid BrezhnevWhat a lovely seventy-fifth We watched the party on TV You seemed to be taking things casually What a mighty heart must beat in your breast To hold forty-nine medals on your chest Think of all the gifts that you've got Some were acquired and some were not Like a natural talent for marionettes Who do your dirty work and cover your bets So with one hand waving free The other one crushed a budding democracy
Congratulations, JaruzelskiWhat a wonderful job you have done Let me mention to a sane man's eye You've lost the meaning of compromise They're comparing you to General Pinochet It's a dubious compliment at best Your people are freezing, the workers are bleeding You've already arranged numerous deaths The only difference in the camps from the stadiums Is not much for the doomed all cry It's only the weather and the songs people sing Just before they die
Do you hear us, Lech Walesa?What a terrible price you have paid For being ahead of your time Has surely constituted a crime Oh, Mr. Brezhnev, look Somebody read the little red book And took it all seriously The way you did when you were young and you believed And you workers and you black Madonna You're not supposed to utter a word But the courage of you and your man of the year Is a symphony the world has seldom seen or heard Through the Siberian gates of hell The Pope and the bishops are wishing you well We see your candles in the park Hear your fearless promises in the dark How they cheat and when tried to win They didn't know that there would always be within you And we hear you, Lech Walesa Yes, we hear you, Lech Walesa Yes, we hear you, Lech Walesa Yes, we hear you, Lech Walesa © 1982 Gabriel Earl Music (ASCAP)
