The World That Was

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The world that was has now become a cause Inspiring simple souls all over Who have a knack of always looking back While drunk or even sober No matter what you may have often heard There's been no death of satire There's more, not less, when "Thank you NHS" Is painted on a Spitfire [Chorus] The world that was has now become a cause All over [Verse 2] Black and white, one truth they know The modern world will have to go The world that was draws memories of our past Which seem a wee bit hazy From what I see, the summary seems to be Morе meat with extra gravy And though I feel I'm a rational man Sometimеs I'm sorely tempted But worship of a past that never was is totally demented [Chorus] The world that was has now become a cause All over
