Lyrics for Arthur by Kinks:
| | | Artist: | Kinks |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Arthur | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 118 | | | | Lyrics: | Arthur was born just a plain simple man
In a plain simple working class position
Though
the world was hard and its ways were set
He was young and he had so much ambition
All the
way he was overtaken
By the people who make the big decisions
But he tried and he tried
for a better life
And a way to improve his own condition
If only life were easy it would
be such fun
Things would be more equal and be plenty for everyone
Arthur the world's gone
and passed you by
Don't you know it, don't you know it
You can cry, cry all night but it
won't make it right
Don't ya know it, don't ya know it
Arthur we know and we
sympathize
Don't ya know it, don't ya know it
Arthur we like you and want to help you
Somebody loves you don't you know it
How is your life and your Shangri-la
And
your long lost land of Hallelujah
And your hope and glory has passed you by
Can't you see
what the world is doing to ya
And now we see your children
Sailing off in the setting sun
To a new horizon
Where there's plenty for everyone
Arthur, could be
That the
world was wrong
Don't ya know it, don't ya know it
Arthur, could be
You were right
all along
Don't ya know it, I hope ya know it
Now we know and we sympathize
We'd like
to help you and understand you
Don't ya know it, don't ya know it
Somebody loves you,
don't ya know it
Don't ya know it, don't ya know it
Arthur the world's gone and
passed you by
Don't ya know it, don't ya know it
You can cry, cry all night
But it
won't make it right
Don't ya know it, don't ya know it
Arthur we read you and understand
you
Arthur we like | | | |
