Time has come to pass
It's time to take the middle finger out your ass
You've been complainin' that the man is screwin' you
He's lost the power yeah, so whatcha gonna do
With all that attitude?

They put their business outta tune
Now the revolution's come into your living room
Is you incapable or is you in denial?
Facing the change that they couldn't see for miles
They couldn't see for miles

The golden age of d.I.y.
I'm getting yours and you got mine

You can take the boy outta '78
The style's gonna change but the sentiment ain't
You can't take '78 outta the boy

Does isolation got your tongue?
They say that youth is often wasted on the young
Take out your protein pills and put your helmet on
You got your motor, where you takin' me today?
So whatcha gonna say?

Easy come and easier go
It's all a case of who you should know

You can take the boy outta '78
The style's gonna change but the sentiment ain't
You can't take '78 outta the boy
