Back then, long time ago when grass was green
woke up in a daze arrived like strangers in the night
fab, long time ago when we was fab,
fab, back when income tax was all we had.
Caresses fleeced you in the morning light,
casualties at dawn, and we did it all.
Fab, long time ago when we was fab,
fab, you're my world you are my only love.
And while you're in this world
the fuzz gonna come and claim you
but you're more better wise
when the buzz gonna come and take you away,
take you away, take you away.
The microscopes that magnified the tears
studied warts and all, still the life flowed on and on
fab, long time ago when we was fab,
fab, but it's all over now, baby blue,
fab, long time ago when we was fab,
fab, like this pullover you sent to me.
Fab,
and you really got a hold on me.
Fab, long time ago when we was fab.
