I just left Victoria gardens And walked through cardboard city land A burnt out star was asking How would I like to shake his hand I walked on in no hurry And wondered where did we go wrong? Looking, listening, hoping That things are changing for the better Don’t want to preach or teach The blues to you now, brother I walked on in no hurry And wondered where did we go wrong? Looking, listening, hoping That things are changing for the better Don’t want to preach or teach The blues to you now, brother It’s a bloody fine situation That we find ourselves in He said something I couldn’t mention here And we laughed with him again I walked on in no hurry And wondered where did we go wrong? Looking, listening, hoping That things are changing for the better You’re trying to see if What you’re teaching is the truth, sir She said it’s for the good of us all And now it is early evening I look across gray Leicester SquareA large and silent crowd were walking Said they had every right to be there I walked on in no hurry And wondered where did we go wrong? Looking, listening, hoping That things are changing for the better Don’t want to preach or teach The blues to you now, brother Looking, listening, hoping That things are changing for the better You’re trying to see if What you’re teaching is the truth, sir
