The Tubes - Gonna Get It Next Time lyrics

rate me

Temptation, frustration,

It's getting hard to understand

Inflation, stagnation,

Problems surrounding modern man

Big city, no pity,

It's just a thing you can't erase

She's pretty, so witty

If only you could see her face

She's got you dancin' on a dime

She's got you runnin' 'til you're blind

Gonna get it next time

Statistics, logisitics

They never tell you what to feel

The big fix, the cheap tricks

They never tell you what is real

You keep on hoping that you'll find

A way to ease your troubled mind

Your modern problems are very real

Suspicion, ambition

You go on livin' day to day

Position, condition

There's got to be another way

She's got you dancin' on a dime

She's got you runnin' 'til you're blind

They never tell you what to feel

Your modern problems are very real

Illusion, confusion

It's hard to know what to believe

Solution, pollution

It's such a tangled web we weave

You keep on hoping that you'll find

A way to ease your troubled mind

There's always somebody else in line

Gonna get it next time
