Housemartins - Think For A Minute! lyrics

Something's going on, a change is taking place<br>Children smiling in the street have gone without a trace<br>This street used to be full, it used to make me smile<br>And now it seems that everyone is walking single file<br>And many hand their heads in shame<br>That used to hold them high<br>And those that used to say hello<br>Simply pass you by<br><br>Think for a minute, stop for a minute<br>Think for a minute, stop for a minute<br><br>I always said it could, they never though it would<br>The people look so pitiful, I'm thinking that it should<br>And now it's almost here, now it's on it's way<br>I can't help saying told you so and have a nice final day<br><br>And nothing I could say<br>Could ever make them see the light<br>Now apathy is happy that<br>It won without a fight<br><br>Think for a minute, stop for a minute<br>Think for a minute, stop for a minute<br><br>And many hang their heads in shame that used to hold them high<br>{think for a minute}<br>And those that used to say hello simply pass you by<br>{stop for a minute}<br><br>Think for a minute, stop for a minute<br>Think for a minute, stop for a minute
