Where Have All The Good People Gone? - Sam Roberts

Oh, the milky way

Has gone a little sour

The leaves dried and the flower

Fell

Away

I’ve been sitting

I’ve been waiting for a sign

Inhuman beings

Taking up all of my time

Want to leave but I’ve got to stay

And I’m wondering more every day

Montreal to Hong Kong

Where have all the good people gone?

Traffic jam but I’m on the shoulder

Two take cops to pull me over

Bangkok to Babylon

Where have all the good people gone?

I haven’t met a friend

In a long, long while

They don’t shake my hand

But they shake my style

The modern world

Is a cold, cold world

And all I meet are

Cold, cold girls

Want to leave but I’ve got to stay

And I’m wondering more every day

Montreal to Hong Kong

Where have all the good people gone?

Traffic jam but I’m on the shoulder

Two take cops to pull me over

Bangkok to Babylon

Where have all the good people gone?

And it’s always the same

We all just turn away

We are stealing from ourselves

We are feeding off ourselves

And we were born in the flame

We need a cool breeze in the summer rain

We are stealing from ourselves

We are feeding off ourselves

Come on

Come on

Come on

People come on

Oh, the milky way

Has gone a little sour

The leaves dried and the flower

Fell

Away

Want to leave but I’ve got to stay

And I’m wondering more every day

Montreal to Hong Kong

Where have all the good people gone?

Traffic jam but I’m on the shoulder

Two take cops to pull me over

Bangkok to Babylon

Where have all the good people gone?

Want to leave but I’ve got to stay

And I’m wondering more every day

Montreal to Hong Kong

Where have all the good people gone?

Traffic jam but I’m on the shoulder

Two take cops to pull me over

Time’s up and we’re running low

Where have all the good people gone?
