[length: 03:10]
[00:12.68]The bomb’s in the china. The fat’s in the fire.
[00:15.63]There’s no turkey left on the table.
[00:19.18]The commuter’s return on the six o’clock flyer
[00:22.05]Brings no bale of hay for the stable.
[00:25.33]Well, the light, it is failing along the green belt
[00:28.27]As we follow the hard road signs.
[00:31.57]Semi-detached in our suburban-ness —
[00:34.25]We’re living in these hard times.
[00:48.76]Well the fly’s in the milk and the cat’s in the stew.
[00:51.26]Another bun in the oven — oh, what to do?
[00:54.35]We’ll laugh and we’ll sing and try to bring
[00:57.96]A pound from your pocket.
[00:59.92]Good day to you.
[01:01.89]Oh, these hard times.
[01:11.93]The politicians sat on the wall
[01:14.85]And traded with the union game.
[01:17.94]Someone slapped a writ on our deficit —
[01:21.08]Not a penny left to our name.
[01:24.23]Oh, the times are hard and the credits lean,
[01:27.22]And they toss and they turn in sleep.
[01:29.94]And the line they take is the line they make —
[01:32.70]But it’s not the line they keep.
[02:11.28]The cow jumped over yesterday’s moon
[02:13.97]And the lock ran away with the key.
[02:16.52]You know what you like, and you like what you know
[02:20.13]But there is no jam for tea.
[02:23.32]Well the light it is failing along the green belt
[02:26.41]As we follow the hard road signs.
[02:29.39]Semi-detached in our suburban-ness —
[02:32.21]We’re living in these hard times.
