Kinks - Where Are They Now? Lyrics
(sung by the tramp)Ill sing a song about some people you might knowThey made front pages in the news not long agoBut now theyre just part of a crowdAnd I wonder where they all are now.Where have all the swinging londoners gone?Ossie clark and mary quantAnd what of christine keeler,John stephen and alvaro,Where on earth did they all go?Mr. fish and mr. chow,Yeah, I wonder where they all are now.Where are all the teddy boys now?Where are all the teddy boys now?The brill cream boys with d.a.s,Drainpipes and blue suedes,Beatniks with long pullovers on,And coffee bars and ban the bomb,Yeah, where have all the teddy boys gone?I hope that arthur seaton is alright.I hope that charlie bubbles had a very pleasant flight,And jimmy porters learned to laugh and smile,And joe lamptons learned to live a life of style.Where are all the angry young men now?Where are all the angry young men now?Barstow and osborne, waterhouse and sillitoe,Where on earth did they all go?And where are all the protest songs?Yes, where have all the angry young men gone.I wonder what became of all the rockers and the mods.I hope they are making it and theyve all got stead jobs,Oh but rock and roll still lives on,Yeah, rock and roll still lives on.
