Well, lived my life and never stopped to worry 'bout a thing
Opened up and shouted out and never tried to sing Wondering if I'd done wrong Will this depression last for long? Won't you tell me Where have all the good times gone? Where have all the good times gone? Well, once we had an easy ride and always felt the same Time was on our side and I had everything to gain Let it be like yesterday Please let me have happy days Won't you tell me Where have all the good times gone? Where have all the good times gone? Ma and Pa look back at all the things they used to do Didn't have no money and they always told the truth Daddy didn't have no toys And mummy didn't need no boys Won't you tell me Where have all the good times gone? Where have all the good times gone? Well, yesterday was such an easy game for you to play But let's face it things are so much easier today Guess you need some bringing down And get your feet back on the ground Won't you tell me Where have all the good times gone?

Day is as light as your brightest dreams, Night is as dark as you feel it ought to be. Time is as fast as the slowest thing, Life is only... Wonder boy, Wonder boy. Everybody is looking for the sun. People strain their eyes to see, But I see you and you see me, And ain't that wonder? Wonder boy, some mother's son, Life is full of work and plunder(?). Easy go, life is not real, Life is only what you conjure. Wonder boy, And the world is joy, every single day. It's the real McCoy, Wonder boy. Everybody is looking for the sun.

La la la la... In man's evolution he's created the city and the motor traffic rumble But give me half a chance and I'd be taking off my clothes and living in the jungle 'cause the only time that I feel at ease is swinging up and down in a coconut tree Oh what a life of luxury -- to be like an apeman I'm an apeman I'm an ape, apeman Oh, I'm an apeman I'm a king-kong man I'm a voodoo man Oh, I'm an apeman I look out the window, but I can't see the sky The air pollution is a-fogging up my eyes I want to get out of this city alive And make like an apeman La la la la... Come on and love me - Be my apeman girl And we'd be so happy - In my apeman world I'm an apeman I'm an ape, apeman Oh, I'm an apeman I'm a king-kong man I'm a voodoo man Oh, I'm an apeman I'll be your Tarzan and you'll be my Jane I'll keep you warm and you'll keep me sane We'll sit in the trees and eat bananas all day Just like an apeman I'm an apeman I'm an ape, apeman Oh, I'm an apeman I'm a king-kong man I'm a voodoo man Oh, I'm an apeman I don't feel safe in this world no more, I don't want to die in a nuclear war I want to sail away to a distant shore, and make like an apeman La la la la... |
