Murphy Elliott - Thirty Was A Long Time Ago lyrics
Your rating:
The're giving million dollar deals Teaching children how to steal The next big thing is small and low Prom the rooftops I can't see Whats coming over me Thirty was a long time ago Thirty was a long time ago I grew up on the charts You cant stop what you don't start Blood and money run on the streets of old Soho And queen jealousy she reigns From Manchester down to Spain Thirty was a long time ago Thirty was a long time ago Making love was once a dream that would never happen or so it seemed Now Cupid's gone old and lost his bow And women half my age The're lying naked on the page Thirty was a long time ago Thirty was a long time ago Dreams of weath and fame you can predict it just like rain I never did find my own chateau But thats all right I guess I count my blessings I forget the rest Thirty was a long time ago Thirty was a long time ago The meaning of rock 'n roll That's all been lost or so I'm told Better not tell Fats Domino Its a huge industry now Just another corporate cash cow Thirty was a long time ago Thirty was a long time ago One man's ceiling is another man's floor Whatever you got you're genoa want some more When I was out of money I had plenty of time Now I'm paying for every damn minute that I'm on the line The telephone rings every time I try to sing Think I better move to Idaho And we measure our lives In our Levis waist size Thirty was a long time ago Thirty was a long time ago
