Where Did the Ordinary People Go?

Colin Moulding

This street has changed so much
A line of fortresses, look but don't touch
I'd like to call on my neighbours one day
But the Doberman won't look the other way

There's one thing I'd like to know
Where did the ordinary people go?

In my street, I don't know a soul
The walls and fences never have no holes
If I could only be your peeping tom
You could complain about my bonfire burning strong

There's one thing I'd like to know
Where did the ordinary people go?
I nod my head and say hello
Where did thе ordinary people go?

Money changеs everyone
Or so it seems
There's no community spirit anywhere
You may say I'm green

In my street, we go by car
The tinted windows never show who you are
If I could see you, I'd complain about the noise
I glimpse across the fence we both might enjoy

There's one thing I'd like to know
Where did the ordinary people go?
I nod my head and say hello
Where did the ordinary people go?

Where did they go? (The ordinary people)
Those ordinary people (The ordinary people)
Where did they go? (The ordinary people)
Those ordinary
