It's All Been Done - Barenaked Ladies, Tom Lord-Alge

I met you before the fall of Rome

And I begged you to let me take you home

You were wrong, I was right

You said goodbye, I said goodnight

It’s all been done

It’s all been done

It’s all been done before

I knew you before the west was won

And I heard you say the past

Was much more fun

You go your way, I go mine

But I’ll see you next time

It’s all been done

It’s all been done

It’s all been done before

And if I put my fingers here, and if I say

«I love you, dear»

And if I play the same three chords,

Will you just yawn and say

It’s all been done

It’s all been done

It’s all been done before

Alone and bored on a 30th century night.

Will I see you on the price is right?

Will I cry?

Will I smile?

As you run down the aisle.

It’s all been done

It’s all been done

It’s all been done before
