lyrics

Nothing changes in a vacuum, only dust and debris
Tired of your echo, you criticize me
Don't listen to the facts, just make your own report
Don't bother with the numbers, that's what imagination's for

Maybe she's a fascist, are you being oppressed?
Sure took a lot of courage to get that off your chest
But I've got receipts, do you kiss your mother with that mouth?
Does being a contrarian help you get around?

Not that it really matters to me but wasn’t it better in 2003?
Put down your phone and maybe you’ll see, we had it straight in ‘73

Be careful out there, things ain’t what they seem!
And the wisdom you share, designed to deceive
Have faith in God, the birds can see!
I’ll put my faith in the Tik Tok teens

If I’d only known, I promise, you’d see! Just put me back in 2015!
We’ll get through it with the skin of our teeth like we did in 2003

Can you believe! We had it better in 2003
Go outside and maybe you’ll see how we did it in 1963
How could I know in 2016 it would be just like ‘73?
It makes no real difference to me but God I miss 2003
