We’re going go downtown
I hear this great new place has opened up
And when we get there, I don’t know
It’s taking ages, don’t you know?

How long, how long
Will this go on?
How long, how long?
The time drags on
How long? I find I can’t go
On much longer now

But the place in question is hard to find
Not a cab ride to the door
And you wonder in your doubtful mind
Is it really worth all that and more?

We seem to be a little lost
Or something, I’m not really sure
About the choice we’re making
The toll it’s taking

How long, how long
Will this go on?
How long, how long?
The time drags on
How long? I find I can’t go
On much longer now
But the place in question’s hard to find
Like an illness with no cure
And our heads are getting wearier
And our hearts are less than pure
Less than pure

Less than pure

How long, I find I can’t go
On much longer now

And the place in question’s hard to find
Not a cab ride to the door
And our heads are getting wearier
And our hearts are less than pure
Less than pure
Less than pure
Less than pure
Less than pure
Pure
