The Housemartins - Think For A Minute

Something's going on,
A change is taking place
Children smiling in the street
Have gone without a trace
This street used to be full,
It used to make me smile
And now it seems
That everyone is walking single file

And many bow their heads in shame
That used to hold them high
And those that used to say hello
Simply pass you by

Think for a minute (think for a minute)
Stop for a minute (stop for a minute)
Think for a minute (think for a minute)
Stop for a minute (stop for a minute)

I always said it could,
They never thought it would
The people look so pitiful,
I'm thinking that it should
And now it's almost here,
Now its on its way
I can't help saying told you so
And have a nice final day

'Cause nothing I could say
Could ever make them see the light
Now apathy is happy that
It won without a fight

Think for a minute (think for a minute)
Stop for a minute (stop for a minute)
Think for a minute (think for a minute)
Stop for a minute (stop for a minute)

And many drop their heads in shame
(think for a minute)
That used to hold them high
(stop for a minute)
And those that used to say hello
(think for a minute)
Simply pass you by
(stop for a minute)

Think for a minute (think for a minute)
Stop for a minute (stop for a minute)
Think for a minute (think for a minute)
Stop for a minute (stop for a minute)
