Oldest Story In The World Lyrics


Kickin down the darkness
Kick it on down the drain
Kill the superstition
Gotta get a state of grace

(Chorus)
It's the Oldest Story In The World
There is nowhere left to hide
So we take it all in stride
When there's no more asking why

There is nothing left to do
But love~baby love~baby love you
Crash the television
Thrash those games and fools
Gotta get a resolution
Better go go back to school

(Chorus)

Fair-weather friends and fair-weather cool
Righteous the right buy all the bad news
Rich up the rich and dumb down the poor
Take it no more

Oldest Story In The World
  • Ann Wilson: "I think people are frustrated with what's happening in this country and I was trying to tap into some of the frustration I was feeling about world events. For some of us, it's like deja vu... we've been through this before."
  • Nancy Wilson: "I like to think this song strikes a blow against the media culture that tries to spoon feed us into thinking that somehow the war is only happening on TV. We come form a Marine Corps family and we know war from the inside." (thanks, Shanny - Detroit, MI, for above 2)
