The Kinks:Did ya

An obscure Kinks track from 1991,it rather fits the way things are today,thirty three and a third people, in a 78 rpm world... DID YA Went for a walk down the old king’s road, To see if anybody was there. But there was nobody home at 3 bywater street, And they had sold cadogan square. And I remember myself in my tie dye sweater, And my hipster corduroy flares. As I knocked on doors, And walked down one-way streets that led nowhere. Ah, did ya ever think it wouldn’t last forever? Did ya ever think that it would get this bad? Did ya ever think that everything would get so crazy? Now the chelsea drug store needs a fix, It’s in a state of ill repair. And my cuban heels are hurting my feet, Just to add to my despair. La-di-dahs drove mini cars in the summertime. (in the summertime) Now they’re towed away for parking on a double yellow line, And they can’t pay the fine. (did you ever think)
