Born in the 80′s In the middle of it Then I was just the child, or maybe the grandchild Not at all interested in tomorrow Reality, really? Yeah, whatever Back then it was Abbey Road, Plura and Rolling Stones on the grammophone 'til the day I moved away from home Now it's Evert Taube, Dylan, Common and Wailing Souls Wonder where the inspiration's coming from They say I sound Oldskool baby Like Frank and Sammy Davis Sing in the rain like Gene Kelly No, I just can't believe what they say but they tell me it was better way back in the days, Not the one to be strivin' backwards But black shoes after 6 PM I bought sneaks for half of the money the rest I put in the matress, savin up for a rainy day No, if thats the way it's supposed to be Ain't really got nothing between the sheets Meanwhile the oldfolks dream 'bout Jerry Lee Gamblin away their pension on lottery The house catches fire – For example Call the firedepartment – Call the police Lawyers – Lord Jesus, Just as long as I don't miss the reruns of The Man From Uncle Garfunkel and Simon I grew up on A-team, Airwolf and MacGyver cause I've heard from the elders that everything was better back in the days even the weather CHORUS This is what we in Luleå call a James Brown Moment: They call it a daydream, sayin it was different But grandma, it's allright That I should grow up, cut my hair and get a job and not tryin to be James Brown But was it not the same, For young mom and dad, when it happened, Woodstock, back in the 70′s or was it maybe 69′ im just wonderin' if it wasn't just really all the same? |
