"1973 Energy" Lyrics words and music by Alex Cosper © Orange Underworld Music, BMI 1973 energy, 1973 energy 1973 was a bad year for you and me with the high prices, energy crisis, there just wasn't time to be free Two years after ditching the system backed by gold the story started growing old The economy was deeply recession-bound the chief's approval ratings were going down Weapons deals led to the oil embargo long lines at the gas pump, how far will your car go? Lots of people claimed to see a UFO flying faster than rockets could go 1973 was a bad year for me and you but some things were good like women's rights and the returning of a POW Music gave us legends we'll never forget Singer/songwriters were more popular than the president 1974 was like the year before with more recession and war pardon the White House revolving door The oil embargo caused prices to rise The petro dollar was a secret compromise overshadowed by scandal inflation's getting harder to handle That's the story buried in history of 1973 energy 1973 was a bad year for you and me with the high prices, energy crisis, there just wasn't time to be free 1973 energy, 1973 energy  |
