Now Those Days Are Gone Lyrics

It sounded good, love, 'til that beautiful song
Turned to a plea and a spasm and it all went wrong
The coffee grind got bitter, hit you right in the head
Tremble like a tambourine poisoned with lead
Really dead, love, can't recall what we saw
Take a little wake-up, we've been here before

And it's all coming round again
And we're all flashing back
And we do what we have to do
Time won't cut no slack

We were living in the future
Now those days are gone
We were kings, we were preachers
Now those days are gone
We had incubi and succubi
Now those days are gone
All these pleasures standing by
Now those days are gone

Well, we thrived on amphetamine, whiskey and gin
Taken with a passion stirred and shaken within
'Cos people like us face our demons alike
Got that panic in the eye, got that finger in the dyke
Now the cheap psychoanalyst will probe and he'll find
The elephant is in the room -we kiss its behind

And it's all coming round again
And we're all flashing back
And it seemed like a good idea
'Til the screen went black

We were living in the future
Now those days are gone
We were kings, we were preachers
Now those days are gone
We had incubi and succubi
Now those days are gone
All these pleasures standing by
Now those days are gone

We were burning through our wishes
Now those days are gone
We were sharing loaves and fishes
Now those days are gone
We were high on the honey
Now those days are gone
Forget about the money
Now those days are gone

And it's all coming round again
And we're all flashing back
And we do what we have to do
Time won't cut no slack

We were living in the future
Now those days are gone
We were kings, we were preachers
Now those days are gone
We had incubi and succubi
Now those days are gone
All these pleasures standing by
Now those days are gone

We were burning through our wishes
Now those days are gone
We were sharing loaves and fishes
Now those days are gone
We were high on the honey
Now those days are gone
Forget about the money
Now those days are gone

Now those days are gone
Now those days are gone
Now those days are gone
Now those days are gone
