I can still recall every last name on the list   As it stretches all over the gate   When all of those faces are gone   And it seems like there's no-one to try and explain what went wrong      (chorus 1)   But you say that it's fine   The old days of yesteryear hiding the ones of today   So its never a crime   To die for your country and live in the old-fashioned way   It's so easy to drink it away in a glass    It's so easy to hide it away in the past      The morning light flickers through every door   As the poets are told that they're wrong   Writers are silenced and singers complain   That the censorship laws have ruined each one of their songs      (chorus 2)   But you say that's alright   The old days of yesteryear finding a role in today   So now its just fine   To never look forward and live in the old-fashioned way   It's so easy to think that the present will last   It's so easy to hide every day in the past      And every poster tells you what you're fighting   It's so wrong, it's so wrong   Uncle Sam will be there right behind you   It's so wrong, it's so wrong      The times are a-changing, or so you been told   Since two tower blocks fell to the ground   But now every nation won't try to find out   That there's something within them to wipe all their prejudice out      (chorus 3)      But you say that's OK   The old day's of yesteryear shaping the ones of today   When you're king for a day   Building the camps that we've seen in another decade   It's so easy to think it won't happen again   It's so easy ignoring the ones that you've saved   It's so easy to think that the present will last   It's so easy to hide it away in the past   It's so easy to drink it away in a glass   It's so easy to live every day in the past
