Lyrics

What ever happened to twin sets?
What ever happened to hi-fi?
What ever happened to tv sex?
What ever happened to you and i?

Your passion is a product
Of highlight and detail
That come hither look--
Bonus offer retail

Whatever happened to pick-up trucks?
Whatever happened to yellow pages?
Whatever happened to burning books?
Whatever happened to new ages?

Your emotions are cheap--
Cut, price, cash and carry
You wear your heart on your sleeve
For any tom, dick, or harry

Your love is a cashed-in cheque
Oh oh, that's the way of all flesh!

Whatever happened to chairman mao?
Whatever happened to god above?
Whatever happened to the cow?
Whatever happened to plug-in love?

Your pasteurised life--
So fit for consumption
Ooh, those undressing eyes--
So strictly commercial

Your love is a cashed-in cheque
Oh oh, that's the way of all flesh!
All flesh!
All flesh!
