Well I'm a modern guy I don't care much for the go-go 

or the retro image I see so often telling me to 

keep trying maybe you'll get here someday 

keep up the working, ok

I close the book on them right there 


I see myself change as the days change over 

I hear the songs and the words don't change 

I write them out of the book right there


We've been had, you say it's over 

Sometimes I'm just happy I'm older 

We've been had I know it's over

Somehow it got easy to laugh out loud 


See me age 19 with some dumb haircut from 

1960 moving to New York City 

live with my friends there we're all taking the same steps

they're foolish now 


We've been had you say it's over 

Sometimes I'm just happy I'm older 

We've been had I know it's over

Somehow it got easy to laugh out loud
