Yesterday's Men (Remastered 1999)

Yesterday's Men (Remastered 1999) - Madness

An insolent speck of youth

Being taken for a walk

So tightly by the ear

That he can hardly talk

Yesterday's men hang on to today

To sing in the old fashioned way

It must get better in the long run

Has to get better in the long run

A metropolitan marathon

Marathon

Has been held today

But who you need to catch

Will be coming the other way

Yesterday's men hang on to today

To sing in any old way

It must get better in the long run

Has to get better in the long run

Because when you're told to start

How far can you go

When your race is run

And you already know

Because when you're told to stop

How far will you go

When your race is run

And you already know

Yesterday's men hang on to today

Hang on

To sing in any old way

It must get better in the long run

Has to get better in the long run

Will it get better in the long run

Will we be here in the long run

Yesterday's men hang on to today

Hang on

To sing in any old way

It must get better in the long run

Has to get better in the long run

Will it get better in the long run

Will we be here in the long run

Hang on in the long run
