Why is it that civilized humanityCan make the world so wrong?In this hurly-burly of insanityOur dreams cannot last long.We've reached a deadline,A press headline,Every sorrow.Blues valueIs news valueTomorrow.Blues Twentieth century bluesAre getting me down.Blues Escape those wearyTwentieth century blues.Why,If there's a God in the sky,Why shouldn't He grinSongtexteHighAbove this drearyTwentieth century din?In this strange illusion,Chaos and confusion,People seem to lose their way.What is there to strive for,Love or keep alive for,Say, 'Hey, hey!'Call it a day?Blues Nothing to win or to lose,It's getting me down.Blues Escape those wearyTwentieth century blues.We've reached a deadline,A press headline,Every sorrow.Blues valueIs news valueTomorrow.Blues Nothing to win or to lose,It's getting me down.Blues Escape those drearyTwentieth centuryBlues.
