Yesterdays Men — текст песни (Madness)

An insolent speck of youth

Being taken for a walk

So tightly by the ear

That he can hardly talk



Yesterdays men hang to today

To sing in the old-fashioned way

It must get better in the long run

Has to get better in the long run



A metropolitan marathon

Has been held today

But who you need to catch

Will be coming the other way



Yesterdays men hang to today

To sing in any old way

It must get better in the long run

Has to get better in the long run



Because when youre told to start

How far can you go

When your race is won

And you already know

Because when youre told to stop

How far will you go

When your race is run

And you already know



Yesterdays men hang to today,

To sing in any old way,

It must get better in the long run

Has to get better in the long run

Will it get better in the long run

Will we be here in the long run



Yesterdays men hang to today,

To sing in any old way,

It must get better in the long run

Has to get better in the long run

Will it get better in the long run

Will we be here in the long run



Do, do, do, hang on in the long run.
