Songtexte

The sweetest things in life don't stay around for very long
They come and go and don't come back again (Come back again)
While they're here you feel so smug
That's when fate pulls out the plug
And the sweetest things in life go down the drain (Go down the drain)
What has happened to galoshes?
Down the drain (Down the drain)
Where's the Czar of all the Russias?
Down the drain (Down the drain)
And the five-cent candy bar?
And the good old Edsel car?
Gone where all the swell things are (Down, down, down, down)
Down the drain (Right down the drain)
Down the drain (Gone down the drain)
Where are telephone prefixes?
Down the drain (Down the drain)
They've all gone to where Tom Mix is
Down the drain (Down the drain)
Where's those grand old gold dust twins?
All those German Zeppelins
Boys who set up bowling pins (Pin, pin, pin, down)
Down the drain (Right down the drain)
Down the drain (Gone down the drain)
Drain, drain, drain, drain (Down, down, down)
Suppose we made a fuss about the double-decker bus?
Do you suppose they'd bring it back again? (Bring back again)
Fountain pens that use real ink
Coins that don't go clunk, but clink
The things we love are sinking down the drain
All the things I love are sinking down the drain
Where are all those kamikazes?
Down the drain (Down the drain)
And the Hotel Savoy-Plazas?
Down the drain (Down the drain)
Where's the New York World's Fair?
Just last year, I saw it there
In the heart of Flushing (Where?)
Flushing
Down the drain (Right down)
Flushing down the drain (Right down the drain)
Flushing down the drain
