On the sidewalk the people are hustling and bustling
They ain't got no time so
They think on the thing that will fill in the space in
Between birth and d**h.
Do do do …
On the TV the people are mumbling and grumbling
They ain't got no hope so
They give out the news that the world's got the blues
S.O.S., S.O.S.
Do do do …
In the movies the people are identifying
They ain't got no season
To split for no reason and so they get by
On the great community lie.
Do da do …
On the sidewalk the people are hustling and bustling
They ain't got no time so
They think on the thing that will fill in the space in
Between birth and d**h, who're they kidding?
Do do do …
