Housemartins Think
Something's going on, change is taking place,
Children smiling in the streets have gone without a
trace.
This street used to be full, it used to make me smile,
And now it seems that everyone is walking single file
And many hang their heads in shame
That used to hold them high.
And those that used to say hello
Simply pass you by
Think for a minute, stop for a minute
Think for a minute, stop for a minute
I always said it could they never thought it could
The people look so pitiful I'm thinking that it should
and now it's almost here, now it's on its way
I can't help saying told you so and have a nice final
day
And nothing I could say
Could ever make them see the light.
Now apathy is happy that
It won without a fight
Think for a minute, stop for a minute
Think for a minute, stop for a minute
And many hang their heads in shame that used to hold
them high - Think for a
minute
And those that used to say hello simply pass you by -
stop for a minute
Think for a minute, stop for a minute
