When We Were Golden Lyrics

Wait my people what's the matter with us now?
Got no money, no looks, no know how
Used to pay for nothing, got everything free
When we were golden, when we were golden
Now just you wait 'til we can't do nothing right
And we get too tired and we don't even play outside
Used to wake the day with a smile on
When we were golden, when we were golden

Those were better days, those were better days
As so you don't forget yourself, oh no, oh no
Those were better days

Wait my people now we're thinking much too small
And now we're working at, instead of burning down, city hall
Just try and forget so you can feel better about what you got
'Cause what you got is what you got anyhow Oh my people we should just do better right?
Don't get to see the day, can't even stay up at night
We used to think so big
Then we forgot about when we were golden
When we were golden

Those were better days, those were better days
As so you don't forget yourself, oh no, oh no
Those were better days

Those were better days, those were better days
As so you don't forget yourself, oh no, oh no
Those were better days

Wait my people what's the matter with us now?
Got no money, no looks, no know how
Used to pay for nothing, got everything free
When we were golden, when we were golden
