Yesterday Is Dead Lyrics by Michael Schenker Group

Universal

2022

[Verse 1]
I've turned into another maniac
Can feel the monkey sitting on my back
I need ambition now to make-believe
Everything will turn out fine
Common media sent to overkill
Guess at least we gotta pay the bill
Hear the rippers knockin' at the door
The sinkin' world will soon be fine
[Pre-Chorus]
When all the chips are down
We oughta stick around
[Chorus]
Yesterday is dead
It's full speed ahead
Tell me what you were thinkin'
Little bit further down we're sinkin'
[Verse 2]
Mirror, mirror hanging on the wall
We will rise, or will we ever fall?
Who is now and what tomorrow brings?
The end of days is what it seems
While all the other sheeps just stand in line
I fill my glass with pleasure, sipping wine
I raise a toast now to the sheep of fools
Who thought they live outside of rules
[Pre-Chorus]
When all the chips are down
We have to stand our ground
[Chorus]
Yesterday is dead
It's full speed ahead
Tell me what you were thinkin'
Little bit further down we're sinkin'
Whoa-oh
[Instrumental break]
[Verse 1]
I've turned into another maniac
Can feel the monkey sittin' on my back
I need ambition now to make-believe
Everything will turn out fine
[Chorus]
Yesterday is dead
It's full speed ahead
Tell me what you were thinkin'
Little bit further down we're sinkin'
Yesterday is dead
It's full speed ahead
Tell me what you were thinkin'
Little bit further down we're sinkin'
