lirik lagu randall kirk jones – looking back on the early twenty-first century

Loading...

“one holy friday per year
endless lines in every town
to buy junk from some country
we couldn’t pr-nounce
the bar had become set at extravagance
houses now monuments for the inanimate to inhabit
but what other sane response was there amidst all life’s tragedy
than diving into anything pleasantly distracting
just following a precedent that had always been in place
every problem put off until it was far too late

while luxury cars, scotch, unsinkable yachts
served to drown out the far off
sirens and deafening gun shots
while messy mini vans and identical houses
isolated us into thinking that’s all that there is

and looking back on the early twenty first century
there’s no other time i would have rather lived
just to watch the world as it went through all these sudden shifts
and the times just seemed to veer so deeply off script

just past the sixties and the hippies, civil rights, and suddenly
to the war in vietnam, napalm alongside roller disco
to the eighties cheesy films, while anytime a bomb could fall
on to the nineties what a strange place to be born into this all

yet i’m thankful for the madness that’s happened on this planet
doc-mented our suffering so you don’t take this era for granted
but even with the chaos that came now and then
it was a far better time to be alive than it had ever been”
