lyrics
OLD FOOLS NEW FOOLS WHAT HAVE YOU GOT TO SAY
THAT’S NOT BEEN SAID BEFORE A HUNDRED TIMES OR MAYBE MORE
OLD FOOLS NEW FOOLS WHO DO YOU THINK YOU’RE FOOLING
HANGING AROUND WITH THE LIVING IN A WORLD SO UNFORGIVING
IF THE LIGHTS OF THE CITY SEEM SO OUT OF REACH
THEY MAY AS WELL BE MARS YOU’RE NEVER GONNA SEE THE STARS
TAKE A LOOK ALL AROUND YOU AS THE WORLD KEEPS PASSING BY
YOU’RE RUNNING ROUND IN CIRCLES JUST TO STAY ONSIDE
OLD FOOLS NEW FOOLS HAVEN’T YOU GOT WORK TO DO
HANGING ROUND IN BARS WHEN YOU SHOULD BE PARKING PEOPLE’S CARS
OLD FOOLS NEW FOOLS WHAT’S THE POINT YOU’RE MAKING
QUOTING FROM THE BEATLES AS LONG AS YOU’RE HEART IS BEATING
TAKE A LOOK ALL AROUND YOU YOU CAN SEE YOU’RE OUT OF TOUCH
ALL YOU HAVE ARE WORDS AND THEY DON’T COUNT FOR MUCH
CAN’T YOU SEE THE DISINTEREST OF THE PEOPLE ON THE STREET
VOTING WITH THEIR FEET BRING OUT YOUR OLD FOOLS
YOU KEEP ON HANGING ON YOU SHOULD BE LETTING GO
THERE IS NO INTEREST IN THE THINGS THAT YOU DON’T KNOW
TAKE A LOOK ALL AROUND YOU’LL SEE NO SYMPATHETIC EYES
YOU’LL FIND THERE IS NO PRIZE FOR BEING WORLDLY WISE
OLD FOOLS NEW FOOLS YOUR TIME HAS COME AND GONE
YOU HAD YOUR CHANCE AND YOU MUFFED IT
AN OPEN GOAL AND YOU FUCKED IT
OLD FOOLS NEW FOOLS GET BACK IN YOUR BOX
YOU’RE TIME IS RUNNING OUT IT’S GOING
TICK TOCK TICK TOCK…

Eggs On Mars are one of the most consistently great bands of recent times with a ramshackle charm all their own. The 2019 album “It Will Be Like It Was” was one of the best of recent times and Brighter Now is shaping up to be the best of 2021.
If you dig Flying Nun, The Pastels, Jad Fair, The Velvets, Beat Happening etc you’ll find plenty to love here. suncharms
