Words and music by John Kay and Gabriel Mekler
Things look bad from over here
Too much confusion and no solution
Everyone here knows your fear
You`re out of touch and you try too much
Yesterday`s glory won`t help us today
You wanna retire?
Get out of the way
The country needs a father
Not an uncle or big brother
Someone to keep the peace at home
If we can`t get together
Look out for stormy weather
Don`t make me pay for your mistakes
I have to pay my own
Yesterday`s glory won`t help us today
You wanna retire?
Get out of the way
I ain`t got much time
The young ones close behind
I can`t wait in line
If we can not wake you
Then we`ll have to shake you
Though some say you`ll only understand a gun
Got to prove them wrong
Or you will lose the battle
Don`t you know we`ll start a war
Which will be won by none
Yesterday`s glory won`t help us today
You wanna retire?
Get out of the way
I ain`t got much time
The young ones close behind
I can`t wait in line
Move over
Come on, Move Over
Repeat Chorus
