Faithfull, Marianne - 20th Century Blues Lyrics
Why is it that civilized humanity
Can make the world so wrong?
In this hurly-burly of insanity
Our dreams cannot last long
A press headline
Every sorrow
Blues value
Is news value
Tomorrow
Blues..
Twentieth century blues
Are getting me down
Blues...
Twentieth century blues
Why?
If there's a God in the sky?
Why shouldn't he grin?
High
Above this dreary
Twentieth century din?
In this strange illusion
Chaos and confusion
People seem to lose their way
What is there to strive for
Love or keep alive for
Say, 'hey, hey!'
Call it a day?
Blues...
Nothing to win or to lose
It's getting me down
Blues...
Escape those weary
Twentieth century blues
We've reached a deadline
A press headline
Every sorrow
Blues value
Is news value
Tomorrow
Blues...
Nothing to win or to lose
It's getting me down
Blues...
Escape those dreary
Twentieth century
Blues
