Stanley Brinks - Things Ain't What They Used to Be lyrics

Artist: Stanley Brinks

album: Stanley Brinks and the Wave Pictures


What i try to do is find the right word
These days i need to look back a bit
My muse is the beauty of the world
I don't get much from the lack of it
You talk to people and they don't even reply
People are losing it, believe me
It's a fact, it's here, it's hard to deny
Things ain't what they used to be
I get tired quickly when i smoke pot
I'm not too smart and i'm not too cute
It's a pity but more often than not
My skin starts to feel like e a wet suit
We're talkng about a whole world going wrong
You don't discuss that over decaf tea
We have to be decadent, we have to be strong
But please, no more whiskey sour for me
Today's bartenders don't want to hear your story
They don't smoke, they're on the phone
They won't give you water, if you don't give them money
If you're not online, you're really all alone
I went to the bathroom to wash my face
But i didn't feel like any of their drinks
He told me to leave, he said "get out of this place"
I said, "that's not how you speak to Stanley Brinks"
