Back In the 60s

You sway to the music That spins off vinyl Alone in your tie-dye room Mind set on high school Prep for a final Gotta move on pretty soon Glancing at the TV Protest demonstration When will this war ever end Footage of a village Oh, the devastation Will the answer blow in the wind Back in the 60s Back in the 60s Back in the 60s Reachin back to capture the dream You cringe to the crying Your child is in pieces You're stuck at the pre-school door The teacher seemed lovely And you made the choices You never had to make before You've taken on a new job Your health has got you worried And which is the best soccer camp Looking for some downtime It all seems so hurried And where is your old lava lamp Back in the 60s Back in the 60s Back in the 60s Reachin back to capture the dream Taking time, looking round Whole world, crashing down Are we so lost we can't be found Your grey head is spinning Messages flying Do you gotta take every call Bullshit gone viral Buzzwords and lying What's the point of it all Yelling at the news feed Traffic stop fatal Lives matter When will this end Sixty years of living And still feeling able Is it time to grow your hair long again Back in the 60s Back in the 60s Back in the 60s Reachin back to capture the dream Back in the 60s, back in the 60s, Now Back in the 60s, back in the 60s, Now Back in the 60s, back in the 60s, Now
