Tough Times

Lyrics

Traffic’s stopped flowing
The cock’s not a’crowing
There’s an ill wind blowing
Tough times
Markets are tumbling
People protesting
The Devil is coming
Tough times
It’s all such a pity
The undertaker’s busy
The daughter’s looking skinny

Playgrounds are locked
Homeschooling what a shock
Teens trapped in TikTok
Tough times
Parties illicit
No-one allowed to visit
But my friends seem to like it
Tough times
It’s all such a pity
The undertaker’s busy
The daughter’s looking skinny

Woe
Fall in dear
Good times are gone
Tough times are here

Bad news is breeding
Good sense retreating
Leaders misleading
Tough times
Mom dosed the kids
The doctors write the scripts
Hey what is is what is
Tough times
It’s all such a pity
The undertaker’s busy
The daughter’s looking skinny

Woe
Fall in dear
Good times are gone
Tough times are here

Once music saved me
Now it betrays me
Like a punishment Divine
The fine times a bubble
In a sea of endless struggle
What we got today is trouble
Tough times
It’s all such a pity
The undertaker’s busy
The daughter’s looking skinny

Woe
Fall in dear
Good times are gone
Tough times are here

A virus in the code
That’s truer than true man
A virus in the soul
Of every broken human
A virus in the head
Of all the little children
A virus in the heart
Of every man and woman
It’s all such a pity
The undertaker’s busy
The daughter’s looking skinny

Woe
Fall in dear
Good times are gone
Tough times are here

You wanna fight a war?
There’s always one more war
War is for sure
Tough times
Everything’s closed
And no-one seems to knows
How it all used to goes
Tough times, tough times, tough times
