Think back to the days when you were young And the world was looking in Do you recall, pre-school Turned out to be pre-anything And you learned to hide the things you feel With all those other imbeciles
And it seems so many years ago I have to say the time went by so fast The good times are here at last The good times are here at last The good times are here at last Yes the good times are here
Hang your head, you longed to grow You clamoured to be older so It’s fist to fist and back to back And the future’s bright and the past is black Then you watched yourself and you watched your friends As they grew to women and they grew to men
And it seems so many years ago I have to say the time went by so fast The good times are here at last The good times are here at last The good times are here at last Don’t you know the good times are here
Think back to the days when you were young And the world was looking in How things have changed now you look out And you watch new lives begin And you learned to hide the things you are And you talk about your job and your house and your car
And it seems so many years ago I have to say the time went by so fast The good times are here at last The good times are here at last The good times are here at last Yes the good times are here at last The good times are here
