We’re gonna go downtown I hear this great new place Has opened up And when we get there I don’t know It’s taking ages, don’t you know
How long, how long Will this go on? How long, how long The time drags on How long – I find I can’t go On much longer now
But the place in question Is hard to find Not a cab ride to the door And you wonder in your doubtful mind Is it really worth all that and more?
We seem to be A little lost or something I’m not really sure About the choice we’re making The toll it’s taking
How long, how long Will this go on? How long, how long The time drags on How long – I find I can’t go On much longer now
But the place in question’s hard to find Like an illness without cure And our minds are growing wearier And our hearts are less than pure Less than pure
