Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm a modern guy, I don't care much for the go-go

Or the retro image I see so often telling me to

Keep trying maybe, you'll get here someday

Keep up the working, okay

I close the book on them right there

[Verse 2]

I see myself change as the days change over

I hear the songs and the words don't change

I write them out of the book right there

[Verse 3]

We've been had, you say it's over

Sometimes I'm just happy I'm older

We've been had, I know it's over

Somehow it got easy to laugh out loud

[Verse 4]

See me, age 19 with some dumb haircut from

1960, moving to New York City

Live with my friends there

We're all taking the same steps

They're foolish now

[Verse 5]

We've been had, you say it's over

Sometimes I'm just happy I'm older

We've been had, I know it's over

Somehow it got easy to laugh out loud
