Roger Daltrey - Times Changed lyrics
Some boys look older / And the young ones smile in jest
Lads born to be the chosen one / While the wise man sings in the
Cuckoo's nest
I walked the West End late last night / After seein' an old friend of mine
We talked about this place and the way / It was
When a bloke could get a break before / These
Times changed / These times changed
These times changed / These times changed
I heard a D.J. spin in Brixton / Some of that fresh massive attack
Here in the house of mass consumption / Where the ecstasy goes fast
On the screen is this month's fashion
Lots of leather and a tattooed breast
Better this than some guru / Who's trying to teach you how to live
When you know
Times changed / Times changed
You know times changed / Times changed
I saw a bastard slap his girl around / I said man have you gone mad
What's gotten into you / That's makin' you so bad
You think love is anything when you / Can't get work
You think life is on T.V. / The he turned up some of that
Speed metal / And said this is what I think
I rode the East End early yesterday / I was hit by the way it's changed
>From the days of Krays in my / Teenage years
When we all knew our place / Now the welfare state is a state of wealth
For some the hope is gone / And a cardboard box in Westminster is
Hard to call a home / But you know
Times change / Times change
Times change / Times change
Everybody knows / Everybody knows
They know that times changed
