Pastime Paradise Lyrics

Patti Smith

Been spending most their lives
Living in a pastime paradise
Been spending most their lives
Living in a pastime paradise

Been wasting most their lives
Glorifying days long gone behind
Been wasting most their days
In remembrance of ignorance oldest praise

Who of them will come to be
How many of them are you and me?

Dissipation, race relations
Consolation, segregation
Dispensation, isolation, exploitation, mutilation
Mutations, miscreation, confirmation to the evils of the world

Been spending most their lives
Living in a future paradise
Been spending most their lives
Living in a future paradise

Been looking in their minds
For the day that sorrow's gone from time
Keep telling of the day
When the savior of love will come to stay

Who of them will come to be
How many of them are you and me?

Proclamation of race relations
Immigration, integration
Verification of relations, acclamation, world salvation
Vibrations, stimulation, confirmation to the peace of the world

Been spending most their lives
Living in a pastime paradise
Been spending most their lives
Living in a pastime paradise

Been spending most their lives
Living in a future paradise
Ohh, future paradise

Been spending too much of our lives
Living in a pastime paradise
Ohh, pastime paradise

Ohh, let's start living for the future
Ohh, future paradise

Let's start living our lives
Living for the future
Ohh, future paradise

Praise to our lives
Living for the future
Ohh, future paradise

Shame to anyone's lives
Living in the pastime paradise
Ohh, pastime paradise

Let's start living our lives
Living for the future
Ohh, future paradise

Let's start living our lives
Living for the future
Ohh, future paradise
