They don’t make rockstars like they used to
They don’t make punk like they used to
Cigarettes & The New York Times for $5
Whatever the cost was
Maybe i was born too late
Maybe we missed the revolution
All i know is things are still somewhat the same
Despite inflation, despite desensitization
We have easier access than ever to it all
Now we jus got to decide what to do with it all
Look around every once in a while
Preoccupied with some screen
Step off the grid
Listen to some rare sound
Find the hidden gem stashed
And believe in the spiritual being
Jus waking up, amused yet despondent
Enlightened beyond superfluous noise
Society is a broken record filled with nonsense
Take a step back from the scene
Yearning for noteworthy art
& noteworthy conversation
With first class cigarettes
Cheap beer
& drip coffee at the diner
So good you have to drink it black
& they keep coming back to fill your cup
