Red flags, poor man's grenade Cool blows, blue serenade – remember? Comrades we said we'd stay – forever We used to gad about, getting smarter We used to wrangle with Marx and Sartre We used to live with inflated egos As for the state of the party – God knows? The ghosts on your wall They come to haunt you again But they're hard to recall Just like last summer's rain Past thoughts, new memories Loud words on summer breeze – surrender So far from yesterday – remember We used to live with the day glow people We used to go and see Mott The Hoople We used to lounge "a la continental" And now you say I'm just #sentimental The ghosts on your wall They come to haunt you again But they're hard to recall Just like last summer's rain The ghosts on your wall They come to haunt you again But they're hard to recall Just like last summer's rain
