Lyrics
IT HAPPENED THEN
Music and words by Peter Baker
Human endeavour sweeps away the likes of you and me
Yes, data flow expands but all our plans are out the door
Out the door What a bore
It Happened Then
It Happened Then
Why, don't it happen then to me? X 2
When Neil Armstrong stepped upon the Moon in '69
He knew and Buzz knew too, their memories would last like wine
Why don't mine, why don't mine?
It Happened Then
It Happened Then
Why, don't it happen then to me? X2
So history fades away though in my mem'ry lingers on
How could a human understand the quandary of my rank
A data bank, a data bank?
It Happened Then
It Happened Then
Why, don't it happen then to me?
