[hometext] => this is for anyone who grew up in a big city in the seventies, in my case London. I recall how everything closed down on a sunday back then how dull and depressing it was for that one day.seeing the old folk in the park and how lonely they seemed.
[bodytext] => Slowly down sunday the old man walks with weather beaten cheeks Down the dreary south London back streets He looks like the lonlinest man in the world, Slowly down sunday on his face not a smile but a grimace has curled. Slowly down sunday he walks by the river in the park and stays in silence untill the afternoon sky grows dark Watching the murky water has it laps at the dirty old shore, Slowly down sunday he's never felt quite so lonely before. Slowly down sunday he makes his weary way back home Through the dreary south london back streets feeling lost and alone, But tomorow is a new day and he'll be raring to go, Slowly down sunday oh how he hates it you know.
