(Riff Regan)
Johnny’s no fool
When he leaves school
He’s gonna charge
He always was a bull
In a china shop
And Jake’s pretty late
In his adolescence phase
When the doctor said ‘Cough’
Jake said ‘Get lost’
To his face
And Jenny’s good looking
And yet she’s pursuing
A life in the theatre of crime
It’s just a sign of the times
All the nice boys and girls in the world are lonely
Haven’t you heard?
They’re lonely
All the nice boys and girls in the world are lonely
Haven’t you heard?
They’re lonely
Simon sleeps in his attic, sometimes gets erratic
But he’s a good guy
A football fanatic
On a Saturday
And Millie’s been and seen ‘Emmanuelle’ twice
Could be the start of something very nice
In a strange kind of way
The kids on the street think that rock ‘n’ roll is dead
Too many poseurs filling up their heads with lies
It’s just a sign of the times
All the nice boys and girls in the world are lonely
Haven’t you heard?
They’re lonely
All the nice boys and girls in the world are lonely
Haven’t you heard?
They’re lonely
Jackie’s walking up and down
Late night shopping with a frown
Always buys her clothes down the King’s Road
From a friend in the trade
Judy thinks it’s fate
That she’s never got a date
Too busy reading star signs and make up your mind times
It’s never too late
All the nice boys and girls in the world are lonely
Haven’t you heard?
They’re lonely
All the nice boys and girls in the world are lonely
Haven’t you heard?
They’re lonely
