Lucy - This Way to the EGRESS

Lucy

Couldn’t carry a tune in a bucket

She worked slinging drinks down at a tavern by the tracks

Oh with a ten gallon mouth

And all it attracts

Every

Friday she’d sweep up the evening

Into her busted dustpan after those old timers sing «Freebird»

And all those songs you’ve heard before

She drowns out the mundane

By drinking just the same

Oh waking up Sunday with the zings

And praying tomorrow will be different in all that it brings

Hey ho, what do you know

There’s a million songs and you’ve heard them all before

And nothing’s new so I guess it’s time we go

We get get going

Hey ho, what do you know

It’s the end of the world I’m sure you have heard that

Nothing’s new I guess it’s time we go

Get get going on

Oh

Oh what difference does it make anyway?

This apathy is killing me

Oh just like Lucy and generations of creative minds

Who like to waste their time

Avoiding interactions

This world can be one steaming big distraction

Hey ho, what do you know

There’s a million songs and you’ve heard them all before

And nothing’s new I guess it’s time we go

Get get going

Hey ho, what do you know

It’s the end of the world I’m sure you have heard that

Nothing’s new I guess it’s time we go

Get get going on

We run for the money but not to save ourselves!

We run for the money but not to save ourselves!

We run for the money but not to save ourselves!

Until it’s «Ut oh, ut oh, oh, NO NO NO»

We run for the money but not to save ourselves!

We run for the money but not to save ourselves!

We run for the money but not to save ourselves!

Until it’s «Ut oh, ut oh, oh, NO NO NO»

No-ooooooohh

Ooohh

Lucy

Is a spitting image of your mother

And the generations that came before her

That were soiled by our fathers guns

The songs that they sung

The wars that they fought

The freedom they bought

And nothing gets saved

And nothing gets changed

Does it matter anyway?

It doesn’t matter anyway

Of course it matters in every way!

Cause we’re not (Shut up! Shoobidoo)

Not gonna change (Shut up! Shoobidoo)

Our minds

Nooo no no

I say we’re not (Shut up! Shoobidoo)

We’re not gonna change (Shut up! Shoobidoo)

Our minds

Hey ho, what do you know

It’s the end of the world I’m sure you have heard that

Nothing’s new I guess it’s time we go

We get get going

Hey ho, what do you know

There’s a million songs and you’ve heard them all before

And nothing’s new I guess it’s time we go

Get get going on
