We've Been Had

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 work, kid" – okay 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 nineteen 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
