Lyrics
you tell me something
and whisper sweet
you´re making statements
you never keep
this world's gone crazy
we´re in a time of spin
but it ain't no use fretting about it
it´s just the times we're living in
your alter ego
keeps changing names
you´re humming gerswin
and playing games
and you keep on talkin´
to show that gucci grin
but it´s no good fretting about it
it´s just the times we´re living in
twenty two million people
waiting on the fence
and half a million
we can't recompense
to see good people
figuring to sink or swim
well, it don't do no good fretting about it
it´s just the times we´re living in
when walking back roads
stay outa sight
footsteps behind you
ain´t feeling right
that someone's coming
gets closer every day
no good worrying about it
just try to get your getaway
if your name is fool
you won't worry
but you've got no time, so
get in a hurry
the world's gone crazy
we´re in those days of spin
no good fretting about it
it´s just the times you get no say
