Levellers - 100 Years Of Solitude Lyrics
All around you slow decayWanna feel the sun of a new dayForget all the chances lostShedding innocence like falling dustAll the things you learned too youngThe songs you knew but never sungWaited a long time and wasted moreForgotten what you waited forCHORUSExcuse me ma'am for being so rudeFeels like 100 years of solitudeMy mind is numb but my houth's okayAnd you can listen or walk awayNos solution's built to lastJust petty scores to settle pastThe N.M.E. was nothing to youAnd the maker, well, the maker of whoThis Walkman generationIn search of sweet sedationShile forests choke under a 'lever skyAnd the Exxon birds that'll never flyCHORUSWe tried we cried we fell we liedThis life's like a white knuckle rideCrack babies born too youngAnd L.A. kids who dance to the gunSo forget this so called dirt of mineIt's just the dust and diesel of passing timeIt's all around you-a tragedy, lookSo forget the cover and read the bookCHORUS--------------------------------------------------------------------------
