Stevie Wonder

Stevie Wonder - Used To Be songtekst

Je score:

Superman was killed in Dallas

There's no love left in the palace

Someone took the Beatles' lead guitar

Have another Chivas Regal



You're 12 years old and sex is legal

Your parents don't know where or who you are



Used to be the hero of the ballgame

Took the time to shake the loser's hand

Used to be that failure only meant you didn't try

In a world where people gave a damn



Great big wars in little places

Look at all those frightened faces

But don't come here, we just don't have the room

Love thy neighbours wife and daughter

Cleanse your life with Holy water

We don't need to bathe, we've got perfume



Used to be a knight in shining armour

Didn't have to own a shiny car

Dignity and courage were the measure of a man

Not the drugs he needs to hide the scar



Can your teacher read, does your preacher pray

Does your president have soul

Have you heard a real good ethnic joke today

Mama took to speed and daddy ran away

But you mustn't lose control

Let's cut the class, I got some grass

The kids are wild we just can't tame 'em

Do we have the right to blame them



We fed them all our indecisions

We wrecked their minds with television

But what the hell, they're too young to feel pain

But I believe that love can save tomorrow

Believe the truth can make us free

Someone tried to say it, then we nailed Him to a cross

I guess it's still the way it used to be
