Todd Rundgren - When Worlds Collide lyrics
Your rating:
Won't be here with the rest of us They'll drop before the paint has dried When worlds collide, when worlds collide The young today, I must confess Have lost the path of righteousness By settling for something less The smarty pants, they fail to see The posture of mortality Is just like common currency That's the way it works for me So I dress like a brushing bride Because my every move is sanctified By claiming God is on my side When worlds collide, when worlds collide When worlds collide, the virtuous Will have to take the shuttle bus But we in limousines shall ride When worlds collide, when worlds collide These kids today, they have no pluck Don't know the value of a buck They think all politicians suck But managing economies Is one of my best qualities Especially to friends like these I can favor the ones I please And if the mandate should be denied me Then there's always something kept aside If you have grease then you can slide When worlds collide, when worlds collide When worlds collide, the devious, The cunning, and mischevious Will mourn the moral men who died When worlds collide, when worlds collide The youth today, I must relate Have not learned to appreciate The pleasures of the city-state They waste themselves on drugs and sex And boogieing in discotheques I'll take them by their bleach-blond necks And conscript those I don't reject Then I'll serve them butchered and fried For a commander can sleep satisfied When someone's licking one's backside When worlds collide, when worlds collide
