The Great Depression Lyrics by Jam, The

The Great Depression Lyrics

    I think we must have all gone mad
    Maybe right turned over
    They promise us the earth
    Instead we've got the great depression
    Now you're free and easy with the base
    You blame your brothers and sisters
    And neurotics say "sod the rest"
    It's the new dissention

    Into the abyss
    By pushing forwards
    It's always down
    It's a desperate war
    You're trying to blow yourselves up
    You don't care who you stand... with the help about
    Hey hey - well that's not the way

    No sense or reason in your fussing and fighting
    And your violent obsession
    Who's ever really left feeling fine
    After the great depression?
    No sense of purpose in the competion
    Keeping up with the jones's
    You buy a house,
    You buy a car
    You buy a marriage and a bed of roses

    Into the abyss
    By pushing forwards
    It's always down
    It's a desperate war
    You're trying to blow yourselves up
    You don't care who you stand ... with the help about

    Hey hey - well that's not the way
