|
Two men on the street |
|
Drinking something cheap |
|
No home |
|
No family |
|
It's cold |
|
Nowhere to sleep |
|
Passersby never catch their eye |
|
Anywhere |
|
One man drinks the other swears |
|
You know where you went wrong |
|
You know where you went wrong |
|
You know |
|
(repeat) |
|
The old man can't understand |
|
No one will shake his hand |
|
I gave security bonds |
|
And colour TV |
|
It costs a few lives |
|
Someone's son always dies |
|
No one shakes his hand |
|
He don't understand |
|
You know where you went wrong |
|
You know where you went wrong |
|
You know |
|
(repeat) |
|
This is the history of the world |
|
Of every boy and every girl |
|
Who don't understand |
|
What's going on anymore |
|
The history of the world |
|
Of every boy and every girl. |
|
Who don't understand |
|
What's going on anymore |
|
(What's going on oh oh oh) |
|
Two girls and a phonograph |
|
One looks the other laughs |
|
"He could have been mine |
|
Why did I change my mind?" |
|
The other girl says "Admit" |
|
You know where you went wrong |
|
You know where you went wrong |
|
You know |
|
(repeat) |
|
This is the history of the world (of the world) |
|
Of every boy and every girl (Ah ah the world) |
|
Who don't (Who don't) |
|
understand (understand) |
|
What's going on anymore (What's going on) |
|
The history of the world |
|
Of every boy and every girl (every boy and girl) |
|
Who don't (Who don't) |
|
understand (understand) |
|
What's going on anymore (What's going on) |
|
You know where you went wrong |
|
You know where you went wrong |
|
You know |
|
(repeat) |
