Little Golden Age

You lived in a place long, long ago Where nothing moves and time goes slow And someone sang about the golden age In Cenetaph Park, drinking in the dark This place was the machine that put the iron in your heart So we hung around and we hung around And we hung around for days In the parking lot stoned, stars shone out of phase And the rain came down, cassettes wore out, oh no! Then you left town feeling pretty down With your headphones and your coat And your dirty graduation down. You were In the bedroom singing radio songs Sing them loud, sing them all night, Emily You needed something to help you along Freeze, freeze, freeze, little golden age Oh, freeze, freeze, freeze, little golden age Oh, oh And I don't miss my little golden age 'Cause the body takes the heart, takes the heart From place to place But this place still stands This place remains unchanged And you can't go back Oh, who would want you anyway You were in the bedroom singing radio songs Sing them loud, sing them all night, Emily You needed something to help you along Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh My little golden age, golden age My little golden age, golden age My little golden age, little golden age My little golden age, little golden age
