Used to be
Charlene & Stevie Wonder
Superman was killed in Dallas There's no love left in the palace Someone took the Beatle's lead guitar Have another Chivas Regal You're twelve years old and sex is legal Your parents don't know where or who you are
Used to be the hero of the ballgame Took the time to shake the loser's hand Used to be that failure only meant you didn't try In a world where people gave a damn
Great big wars in little places Look at all those frightened faces But don't come here We just don't have the room
Love thy neighbor's wife and daughter Cleanse your life with holy water You don't need to bathe, we've got perfume
Used to be a knight in shining armor Didn't have to own a shiny car Dignity and courage were the measure of a man Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Not the drugs he needs to hide the scar, Oh woh woh woh oh woh
Can your teacher read? Does your preacher pray? Does your president have soul? Have you heard a real good ethnic joke today?
Mama took her speed and daddy ran away But you musn't lose control, Let's cut the class, I got some grass The kids are wild we just can't tame 'em Do we have the right to blame them?
Fed them all our indecisions We wrecked their minds with television But what the hell, they're too young to feel pain
But I believe that love can save tomorrow Believe the truth can make us free Someone tried to say it, then we nailed Him to a Cross I guess it's still the way it used to be
