Noël Coward - 20th Century Blues lyrics

Blues Twentieth century blues They're getting me down. Who's Escaped those weary Twentieth century blues? Why, If there's a god in the sky, Why shouldn't he grin, High Above this dreary Twentieth century din? In this strange illusion, Chaos and confusion, People seem to lose their way. What is there to strive for, Love or keep alive for, Say, 'Hey, hey!' Call it a day. Blues Nothing to win or to lose, It's getting me down. Who's Escaped those weary Twentieth century blues? Why is it that civilized humanity Can make the world so wrong? In this hurly-burly of insanity Our dreams cannot last long. We've reached a deadline, The press headline, Every sorrow. Blues value Is news value Tomorrow. Blues Twentieth century blues They're getting me down. Who's Escaped those weary Twentieth century blues? Why, If there's a god in the sky, Why shouldn't he grin, High Above this dreary Twentieth century din? In this strange illusion, Chaos and confusion, People seem to lose their way. What is there to strive for, Love or keep alive for, Say, 'Hey, hey!' Call it a day. Blues Nothing to win or to lose, It's getting me down. Who's Escaped those weary Twentieth century blues?
