The Santairs - And It's So Bad Lyrics

The times have changed and the world is strange
And the music is old and dead
But to be alive in a world revived
It's hard to know what's said
When the world gets old and the bombs explode
We'll have a chance to start anew
But who will give a damn when our uncle Sam
Says, come on baby, you're screwed
And it's so bad. And it's so bad. And it's so bad. And it's so bad

When the earth is gone and you're the only one
Johnny B. Goode turns bad
And then Israel looks like a cereal
Inside a bowl you once had
All we want is peace, the people want to cease
All this war that is so old
But what's done is done, you're still the only one
And there's nothing that you can hold
And it's so bad. It's so bad when you wish you had. It's so sad

If you're being chased to have your mind erased
You better not be so blind
Why can't you see that it takes you and me
For the world is not just, kind
We smoke some weed, trying to plant the seeds
For a generation of hope
But you can't succeed if you cannot read
Because your mind is so full of dope
And it's so bad. It's so bad. I wish I never had, and it's so bad

You get drunk when you drink and then you puke in the sink
And then you think it feels so good
But that's not so cool, for you are just a fool
With a head made out of wood
You drink and smoke, and then you tell a few jokes
To the people that you wish were dead
And then the whores come out as they scream and shout
So as to only mess with your head
And it's so bad. Yes, it's so bad. It's so bad, and it's so bad

When you drink and drive, and then you stay alive
Expect to be shot on sight
Either go get killed or just pop a few pills
So you can glow in that light
But don't be deceived cause you will never relieve
The drugs cannot revive
But too bad you're dumb when you're nothin' but scum
And still you don't realize
That it's so bad. And it's so bad. And it's so bad. Yes, it's bad

We'll travel afar 'round the world in a car
To play in some foreign land
And someday we'll be, as you will all see
The best damn rock and roll band
We still have to wait and we must meditate
Before we end the whole darn story
We do it for girls and the entire world
To get all that glory
And it's so good. And it's so good. You know that I should. It feels so good
