Fallen On Hard Times Lyrics - Broadsword And The Beast - Jethro Tull

Fallen on hard times, but it feels good to know 

That milk and honey's just around the bend 

Running on bad lines we'd better run as we go 

Tear up, tear up the overdraft again 

Oh, dear Prime Minister, it's all such a mess 

Go right ahead and pull the rotten tooth 

Oh, Mr. President, you've been put to the test 

Come clean for once and hit us with the truth 

Looking for sunshine, oh, but it's black and it's cold 

Yet, you say that milk and honey's just round the bend 

Giving us a hard time, my friends 

Handing us the same line again

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Fallen on hard times and there's nowhere to hide 

Now they've re-possessed the Rolls Royce and the mink 

Turning on the peace sign and it's back to the wood 

Soon there will be raised a holy stink 

Somebody wake me I've been sleeping too long 

Oh, I don't have to take this lying down 

You can keep your promises shove `em where they belong 

Don't ask me to the party won't be around 

Looking for sunshine, oh, but it's black and it's cold 

Yet, you say that milk and honey's just round the bend 

Giving us a hard time, my friends 

Handing us the same line again

Fallen on hard times 

We're fallen on hard times 

Oh, fallen on hard times 

I do read between the lines 

Oh, when you're fallen on hard times
