Joe Walsh - Decades Lyrics

Send "Decades" ringtone to your cell

Minutes turn to hours counting seconds tick away.

Another day tomorrow tomorrow's just another day.

Days turn into years and time goes by over and over

Again and again and then years turn into decades.

Decades. Start another decade times ten.

Ten decades one hundred years.

Ten decades. And the first ten started going so much faster

Than the whole one hundred years before.

And the second ten we started fighting.

We fought the war to end all wars.

So somebody named the twenties roaring

And in the thirties we fought some more.

And the fighting went on and on (and on);

Nobody could stop it (stop it stop it)

So somebody built a bomb (bomb);

All you had to do was drop it (drop it) right or wrong.

They dropped it; they dropped it.

And toward the end of the forties after the storm I was born.

I am calling across a field from far away far away.

This is my calling song; I am worried I am concerned.

There are reasons can't be explained.

And there are questions that have no answers.

That's the reason I want to know: how long how long can this go on?

I want to know how long how long

When so many things happen nothing gets done.

So many wars no one ever won one and no one ever will

No one ever will.

I am calling this is my calling song.

And the fifties were the best I guess except for the fighting

And the sixties were unrest oh yes we went to the moon.

We had hopes we had dreams

And sometimes late at night it still seems like Camelot.

And the seventies lasted 'til May.

And on the hill that day I gave up and started writing Decades.

And the eighties were a waste of time and here we are in the nineties!

Nine in a row one more to go oh! Over and over again and again.

One hundred years; ten years times ten.

So many things happened nothing got done.

So many wars no one ever won one.

Decades decades
