Tuesday Of The Sixties Lyrics

Times were changing fast and so

When we grew up we didn't know

Just how to be

Revolution everywhere

We young were hip all others square

And love was free

I was a product of the boom

Dismissing the atomic doom

They said was nigh

A renegade or so I thought

Conventionality I fought

When we were high

So I began to hang around

By Fulham Broadway underground

The place to be

Boutiques playing Caroline

Had us singing "I Feel Fine"

And "I Feel Free"

Dressed in a parka as were most

We drove our scooters to the coast

And had a beer

She asked if I would like to talk

When I agreed we took a walk

Along the pier

Tuesday came and went so fast

Good things often never last

Monday Monday, purple haze

Friday on my mind a phase

She wore flowers in her hair

When she kissed me at the Chelsea fair

Tuesday of the Sixties

I will always remember you

Decades later now we're held

Conforming where we once rebelled

We play the game

Some would say we've failed the test

Becoming driftwood like the rest

We're all to blame

The other day while leafing through

The daily news I made it to

The classifieds

In column four, page thirty-three

I read a brief obituary

My day had died

Tuesday came and went so fast

Good things often never last

Monday Monday, purple haze

Friday on my mind a phase

She wore flowers in her hair

When she kissed me at the Chelsea fair

Tuesday of the Sixties

I will always remember you

She wore flowers in her hair

When she kissed me at the Chelsea fair

Tuesday of the Sixties

I will always remember you
