lyrics

Maybe you’ve only just begun
But one thing you know for sure

Ain’t nothing new under the sun
It’s the one thing you can’t ignore
Don’t mean to spoil all your fun
But it’s all been done before

They sold it down the river
Then threw it overboard
They told it to deliver
Then locked it in the store

Don’t it make you want to shiver
That it’s all been done before

Seems like all the innovation

Is just a kind of recreation
Picking pieces up from off the floor
And every time you try it
You just can’t deny it
What you think came out of you
Has already been done before

Well they hung it from the ceiling

Then they walked it out the door
Tried to make it less appealing
Then they tried to make it more
Don’t you ever get the feeling
