boy there was a day an assortment of rhymes

and waving, we rode that parade for awhile

and everybody knew everybody



boy there was a day being lonely was hard

and then your attention was never enough



i don't really know anybody in love

i don't want to know anybody in love



and when the mouth is open grows a cancer

everybody wins

round and round and settle down, settle down



brand the herd of those who duplicate

and crush the wind of those who deviate

and ride the wave along the mitigated mile

ride the wave along the mitigated mile
