That was then but this is now lyrics
by ABC



Why make the past
Your sacred cow
I 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 plow
Yeah, yeah, yeah

(CHORUS)
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
Musn't grumble
Help yourself to another
Peice of apple crumble

And consequently
Hearts of oak are
Charred and blistered
Russians should
Be baby-sitted
Americans resisted

(CHORUS) 2X

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
