While we've been away

Three presidents have been sworn

Five kiddos got born

With two sets of twins

And all of 'em boys

Call us Diesel Dads

Our beards have gone grey

And I moved away

Why so long to write another dozen songs?

We were busy

Is it a reunion

If no one cared we were gone or that we're back?

Call it a new dawn

A silver age

A lost decade and some change

We sold our beloved van

Some of us joined new bands

Marriages and mortgages

Oh, and we found Topher and Chad

Call us a tribute act

Traded life on the road

For making corporate dough (sellout!)

Surprise! It's time for us to rise from the ashes

Is it a reunion

If no one cared we were gone or that we're back?

Call it a new dawn

A silver age

A lost decade and some change

Maybe we've still got a bit of rage

Nah, we were never wired that way

Maybe we're out of touch

Maybe we've still got some bad puns in us

Maybe I should just shut up
