Lyrics

[Verse 1] Down by the seaside See the boats go sailin' Can the people hear Oh, what the little fish are saying? [Refrain] Ah Ooh Oh, oh, the people turned away Oh, the people turned away [Verse 2] Down in the city streets See all the folk go racin', racin' No time left, oh no To pass the time of day [Refrain] Ah Ooh Hey, hey, yeah, the people turned away The people turned away [Bridge] So far away, so far away See how they run, see how they run See how they run, see how they run Do you still do the twist? Do you find you remember things that well? I wanna tell you, some go twistin' every day Though sometimes it's awful hard to tell Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, oh [Verse 3] Out in the country Hear the people singin' Singing about their growin' Knowing where they're goin' Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah [Refrain] Ah Ooh Oh, oh, oh, oh, the people turned away Yeah, the people turned away [Verse 4] Sing loud for the sunshine Pray hard for the rain And show your love for Lady Nature And she will come back again Yeah, yes, she will [Refrain] Ah Ooh Oh, oh, oh, the people turned away The people turned away Don't they know that they're goin'?
