People Used To Lyrics

People used to get together 'round a fire
Fishes were cooked, songs were sang
Moonlight used to guide our way home in the dark
Do you find it hard remembering?

And still you people tell me life is easy to get on with
And what I've got so far's enough to be going on with
People tell me that it's so,
I don't know anymore, I don't know.

People used to get together 'round a problem
Eyes were looked at, tongues were true
People used to stop to say "How do you do?"
Do you find it hard remembering?

And still you people tell me life is easy to get on with
And what I've got so far's enough to be going on with
People tell me so
I don't know anymore, I don't know.

People used to spend an hour making tea
Easy easy was the rule
People used to pause to think and contemplate
He who hustled was the fool
