Tom Robinson - Living In A Boom Time Lyrics
Whatever happened to the old brigade
The hopes we had and the plans we made
Days and nights we spent together
Now those days are gone forever
Emigrated to the USA
Now he's working for Edison Con
On a research project, making a bomb
Ben's been selling retirement homes
Pinstripe whistle and a cellnet phone
Ripping off pensioners don't look good
If he didn't do it some other guy would
Pad those shoulders, swing those hips
New opportunities, knock-knock-knocking in a boom time
New opportunities, let's forget about the gloom time, these are your
New opportunities, knock-knock-knocking in a boom time
New opportunities, let's forget about the doom time, soon time
Margo's happy with her cats and dogs
Given up people as a total loss
Says dumb animals got no choice
Firebombs laboratories to give 'em a voice
Dave just privatized his council flat
Home owner, drop of a hat
Interest went up, he couldn't pay
Big corporation gonna take it away
Shrug those shoulders, let's get hip
Don't get angry, read my lips, we've all got
New opportunities, knock-knock-knocking in a boom time
New opportunities, let's forget about the gloom time, these are your
New opportunities, knock-knock-knocking in a boom time
New opportunities, let's forget about the doom time, soon time
Jamie's working out at the gym
No more dangerous living for him
Given up alcohol and ecstasy
Ever since he diagnosed HIV
No more parties, no more trips
Wise up suckers, read my lips, these are your
New opportunities, knock-knock-knocking in a boom time
New opportunities, let's forget about the gloom time, these are your
New opportunities, knock-knock-knocking in a boom time
New opportunities, let's forget about the doom time, soon time
