Lyrics

Old days, golden, covering the bases
Back when we used to punch each other in the faces
Under my skin, try on the iron, see how it feels
Let bygones be bygones, past to be obscure
Script of the well known
That's when we didn't know shit from the elbow
Underground meant something, low waterpocalypse
Cats stuck in trees, robots and rocket ships
Way back when
Solid gold, that song on the radio's nice
Way back when
Solid gold, that song on the radio's nice
Way back when
Solid gold, that song on the radio's nice
Way back when
Solid gold, that song on the radio's nice
Books for hands, trash in the can
Cash in the plan, flash in the pan
Baseball, baseball, making the catches
Tearing the roof off, playing with matches
Bumped and bruised, dumped by the girlfriend
Satan and Santa Claus, waiting for the world's end
Dancing in the bathroom, suffering and hatred
Cutting the trees down like nothing is sacred
Struck by lightning, brand new exciting dance
Writing grants, we might've had a fighting chance
Words like weapons were dealt to crush and blow
Under the stars on the edge, touch and go
Boogeymen, dirty books, fingers crossed just in case
Sadly mistaken, try to make it to second base
Men drew lines, young boys drew knives
Every study, everybody had to rise
Way back when
Solid gold, that song on the radio's nice
Way back when
Solid gold, that song on the radio's nice
Way back when
Solid gold, that song on the radio's nice
Way back when
Solid gold, that song on the radio's nice
Dry heaves, it's over so why grieve
After lunch used to be so naive
Odd jobs, we bought stories and sold bottles
Living in the world of superheroes and role models
Big deals out of limits and fringes
Stomping styrofoam, shopping carts off bridges
Men of the rodeo and women of burlesque
Epic battles and apples on the teacher's desk
Crying wolves awaken in the cave
Weakness, secrets taken to the grave
The bigger, the better, unfair and so drastic
Things made of wood, long days and no plastic
Fuzzies weighed a ton, forty-fifths, thirty-thirds
Limits untested, first kisses and dirty words
Devil's in the details, God saw everybody
Bad joke like "ha ha, very funny"
Way back when
Solid gold, that song on the radio's nice
Way back when
Solid gold, that song on the radio's nice
Way back when
Solid gold, that song on the radio's nice
Way back when
Solid gold, that song on the radio's nice
