When I was a young young man
back in the twentieth century.
The day the Berlin wall came down
and other days forgotten
nostalgia isn't what it was
farewell then Johnny Rotten
Brian Jones & Jackson Pollock Chairman Mao
see you later Allen Ginsberg
you changed the world somehow.
I've been looking for a way to be true
a way out of the blue
calling but I cant get through
to explain myself to you
the constant repetition
of details from the past
the painful human anguish
of why can't true love last?
whilst living in the wreckage
of all we've done
