Times Like This Songtext

Times Like This (Michael Georgiades, Le Roy Marinell, Pat Robinson) I was watching the world dying, in between innings on CNN All caught up in the circumstances, the litigation, leading to the end On the other side of innocence, lies the lure of a bittersweet kiss You learn to appreciate your friendships In times like this Now the snakes are out on the trail, they're all hissing ? about shaking things up They got one hand in your pocket while they promise to fill the other one up On the present side of what used to be Sometimes it's good to reminisce You'd better pay attention to the details In times like this Maybe we should take a walk We got so much to say But what's there to talk about ? anyway? You can get down on your knees but they'll still do you, for a lousy buck It does no good to plead to the sandman when he says that your time is up You can gamble on the market, bet on the horses, easy money is hard to resist But you'd better bring home something In times like this Maybe we should take a walk There's so much to see But we've already seen it all Haven't we? You leave people to their own devises, they usually do their best Some are self-indulgent, some are suckers, some are just a mess No one said it would be easy, was it Leary or Keasy who said "More is more and less is less ?" There's always more than meets the eye here In times like this Always more than meets the eye here In times like this
