Gay Dad - Dateline lyrics

rate me

I started feeling blue

back in 1972

barefoot in the street

I had patches on my jeans

and high up in the hills

they were nodding out on pills and booze

a æ…»odawful sad affair?

and the lights were there to thrill you

my oh my

we live from time to time

and day by day

it抯 the modern way

look at me I抦 speeding through

self obsessive

just like you

we can smile

oh yeah we can smile

1984

and school was out for summer

I was hot for teacher

well you should have seen our double feature

started feeling fine

in the winter of 1989

such an underrated year

but it抯 gone gone gone

my oh my

we live from time to time

and day to day

it抯 the only way I know

look at me I抦 speeding through

a self obsessive just like you

we can dance

we can dance the days away

1999

it抯 the end of modern time

there抯 panic in your eyes

so if you can抰 get muscles

then you better get yourself a tan

and be a real man

cos the heroes that you worshipped

are all gone gone gone

my oh my

we live from time to time

and day to day

it抯 the modern way

look at me I抦 speeding through

self obsessed I抦 just like you

we can dance

we can dance the night away
