the day the talkies came - peter straker lyrics
you could laugh till you cried
you could lose yourself a while
in the silent screen
you’d forget where you’d been
what you’d seen
you were part of the silver screen
all the world just p-ssed you by
you just sat there starry-eyed
as the lady of the keys
added atmosphere with ease by her expertise
and the hero got his man
while the keystone cops were still trying to find the gang
all the world just p-ssed you by
you just sat there starry-eyed
ba-ba-da-ba-dum
ba-ba-da-ba-dum
and then the day came when those
talking pictures came to town
this innovation had people talking
for miles around
they had forgotten the thrills they had seen
when men like chaplin had come to the screen
gone was the silence that once was a dream
the day the talkies came to town
the day the talkies came to town
the day the talkies came to town
the day the talkies came to town!
you could laugh till you cried
you could lose yourself a while in the silent screen
you’d forget where you’d been, what you’d seen:
you were part of the silver screen
all the world just p-ssed you by
you just sat there starry-eyed
ba-ba-da-ba-dum
ba-ba-da-ba-dum
ba-ba-da-ba-dum
then came the day when those
talking pictures came to town
this innovation had people talking
for miles around
they had forgotten the thrills they had seen
when men like chaplin had come to the screen
gone was the silence that once was a dream
the day the talkies came to town
the day the talkies came to town
the day the talkies came to town
