That Was Then But This Is Now Lyrics - Absolutely - Abc

Why make the past your sacred cow? 

Why guess you've changed? You've changed and how 

Yeah, yeah, yeah 

Fruit's grown rotten on the bough 

Reap what you sow, with a counterfeit plough 

Yeah, yeah, yeah 

That was then, but this is now 

That was then, but this is now 

More sacrifices than an Aztec priest 

Standing here straining at that leash 

All fall down 

Can't complain, mustn't grumble 

Help yourself to another piece of apple, crumble 

And consequently 

Hearts of oak are charged and blistered 

Russians should be baby sitted 

Americans enlisted, hey 

That was then, but this is now 

That was then, but this is now 

That was then, but this is now 

That was then, but this is now 

That was then, that was then, but this is now 

That was then, that was then, but this is now 

That was then, that was then, but this is now 

That was then, that was then, but this is now
