"American??Past Times"

Oh my lord, I hate to be bored
I can not stand this day
My brain is in motion,
but it has no notion
I hate when the sky is gray
My fingers and toes,
are in a wriggle,
can't someone just make me giggle?
I miss all the fun,
all the people in the sun,
the bikinis, beer in hand
...and a really awesome band.
Like it used to always be,
growing up just ain't for me.
The music, I like, I hear,
makes me think of other years.
Ones that are in the past,
when American?? pastimes were so vast.
Like movies & bowling,
hot rods & concerts,
kids playing so freely
and digging in the dirt.
Family values have changed,
schools today are just a shame!
Being bored is such a chore,
why the hell are we at war?
We need something to do,
to make us all feel new. �
It can't come from the past,
but we still just want to have a blast!
