It Is As It Was Lyrics


(You know that it is as it was,
you know that it is as it was)C'mon, we're gonna start at the beginning
Page one, Bonomo says,
"It's gonna get good now
it's gonna get better"Read on, well this is the story of The Fleshtones,
Chapter one, how we started,
it is what it is
it is what happened.It is as it was, you know that it is as it was,
you know that it is as it was
you know that it is as it wasDig in, we didn't make a whole lot of money
But we did what we wanted to
If you read "Sweat"
you can find out tooIt is as it was, you know that it is as it was,
you know that it is as it was
you know that it is as it wasIt goes back to our past
But the present rolls on into the futureTonight the band is ready for some action
Hold tight, you're here to have fun
Like the Pope in Rome says

"It is as it was, now"It is as it was, you know that it is as it was,
you know that it is as it was
you know that it is as it wasIt is as it was, you know that it is as it was,
you know that it is as it was
you know that it is as it was

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Often tagged as garage-rock revivalists, the Fleshtones mix the fuzz-guitar and Farfisa organ sounds of that genre with rockabilly, '50s and '60s R&B, and surf into a potent retro stew the group likes to call "Super Rock." The group formed in 1976 in Queens with vocalist/keyboardist Peter Zaremba, guitarist Keith Streng, bassist Jan Marek Pukulski, and drummer Bill Milhizer and aimed to return rock and roll to the simplicity and unself-consciousness of the '50s and early-'60s. (The group was often joined on-stage and in the studio by sax player Gordon Spaeth, who passed on in 2005.
