Ain't Been the Same Songtext
von Milton

The cops drive a big red truck
The black cats are bringing good luck
The rooster starts crowing
Just as the sun goes down

The peacocks all bashfully blush
The sloth′s in a terrible rush
It ain't been the same since my lady friend left this town

Rain′s falling up from the clouds
The quarry's soft, the library's loud
The kings in an old straw hat
The hobo wears a crown

The leaves are turning green in the fall
Napoleon is seven feet tall
It ain′t been the same since my lady friend left this town

Roses are blue, violets are red
Salt taste sweeter than wine
The wise men write that the best things in life
Are on sale for 2.99


February was real hot in Duluth
The tabloids are printing the truth
Gas is gettin′ cheaper
Mimes talk in stereo sound

The sword out-mightied the pen
The cubs took the series again
It ain't been the same since my lady friend left this town

Dostoyevsky is light and gay
Einstein′s playing the fool
Minnesota flats is writing tortilla flats
Steinbeck's playing pocket pool

They′re serving ice cream hot off the grill
The going's tough; the tough just stands still
The pentagon′s a square
The pyramids are perfectly round

And a mother's work is always done
The werewolves howl at the sun
Ain't it a shame, everything′s upside down

It ain′t been the same since my lady friend left this town
No, it ain't been the same since my lady friend left this town
No, it ain′t been the same since my lady friend left this town
