Those Were the Days
When they'd take you by the hand
Make all your plans
Show you where to stand
Those were the days
Someone always kept you close
Picked out your clothes
Showed you where to go
Those were the days
Before there was no choice
You had no voice
But now
You get a say
Before you did no wrong
Now you sing songs
About how
Those were the days
Don't you want to be somebody
Don't you want to fuck up somebody's day
Don't you want to join the party
Don't you want to stumble alone
You never had to pay
Woke up to praises
You'd eat or sleep or play
Those were the days
There was no policing crimes
No keeping time
And you had nothing to hide
Those were the days
Before there was no choice
You had no voice
But now
You get a say
Before you did no wrong
Now you sing songs
About how
Those were the days
Don't you want to be somebody
Don't you want to revel in your mistakes
Don't you want to join the party
Don't you want to stumble alone
Before there was no choice
You had no voice
But now
You get a say
Make all your plans
Show you where to stand
Those were the days
Someone always kept you close
Picked out your clothes
Showed you where to go
Those were the days
Before there was no choice
You had no voice
But now
You get a say
Before you did no wrong
Now you sing songs
About how
Those were the days
Don't you want to be somebody
Don't you want to fuck up somebody's day
Don't you want to join the party
Don't you want to stumble alone
You never had to pay
Woke up to praises
You'd eat or sleep or play
Those were the days
There was no policing crimes
No keeping time
And you had nothing to hide
Those were the days
Before there was no choice
You had no voice
But now
You get a say
Before you did no wrong
Now you sing songs
About how
Those were the days
Don't you want to be somebody
Don't you want to revel in your mistakes
Don't you want to join the party
Don't you want to stumble alone
Before there was no choice
You had no voice
But now
You get a say
