Queen The Day The Talkies Came Lyrics

You could laugh till you cried
You could lose yourself a while in the silent screen
You'd forget where you'd been, what you'd seen
You were part of the silver screen
All the world just passed you by
You just sat there starry eyed

As the lady of the keys
Added atmosphere with ease by her expertise
And the hero got his man
While the Keystone cops were still trying to find the
gang
All the world just passed you by
You just sat there starry eyed

Ba-ba-da-ba-dum
Ba-ba-da-ba-dum

Then came the day when those
Talking pictures came to town
This innovation had people talking
For miles around

They had forgotten the thrills they had seen
When men like Chaplin had come to the screen
Gone was the silence that once was a dream The day the talkies came to town
The day the talkies came to town
The day the talkies came to town

You could laugh till you cried
You could lose yourself a while in the silent screen
You'd forget where you'd been, what you'd seen
You were part of the silver screen
All the world just passed you by
You just sat there starry eyed

Ba-ba-da-ba-dum
Ba-ba-da-ba-dum
Ba-ba-da-ba-dum
Then came the day when those
Talking pictures came to town
This innovation had people talking
For miles around

They had forgotten the thrills they had seen
When men like Chaplin had come to the screen
Gone was the silence that once was a dream
The day the talkies came to town
The day the talkies came to town
The day the talkies came to town
