Nostalgia For An Age That Never Existed

Fake '50s clothes
Fake '50s food
Classic gas-guzzling dream cars
In more ads on the tube
Fake home-made cookies
Like mommy usedto make
Nostalgia for an age
That never existed
Do you remember
Art-deco knick-knacks and flings
The stars on the silver screen
Made you forget Hooverville
View the world Through Time-Life and Nick at Nite
Nostalgia for an age that never existed all the stars had a pretty face
Children and Negroes knew their place blocks of happy families
With moms and dads all in love or are these wholesome memories
Really from reruns on TV and ads in old garage sale magazines
Fake sixiteis
Mask our leaders' sleaze
Is it really a new beiginning
With confederate Kennedys?
Fake Camelot
Before everything went wrong
Nostalgia for an age
That never existed
Do you remember
The Summer of Love
Vietnam, mini-skirts and drugs
Rebellion was so much fun
Tell your own kids
Just Say No to that
Nostalgia for an age
That never existed
Turn that MTV racket off
So your folks can listen to "classic" rock
Mellow out to the same old songs
Again and again and again
Do you wonder or even care
How you wound up such a square
If ya can't stand the Big Chill
Get out of the freezer
Can't stand the Big Chill
Get out of the freezer everything old is new again
It all comes back, jsut wait your turn
But somehow the magic's always missing
Giving up on future dreams
To dwell on rosy memories
Will make sure your best days
Are in the past
Nostalgia for an age that never existed
Nostalgia for an age that never existed
Do yo uremember
Being the first punk in your town
Outlaw #1
For the t-shirt you had on
Now you stay home
Mad at the whole scene
For refusing to freeze
In 1983
Why can't all the old bands reform
Stick to playing their old songs
It ain't punk
If it ain't just like the old days
That was then, this is now
Suckling up to the sacred cow
Can leave ya stuck in the mud
With its remains
Nostalgia for an age that never existed
Nostalgia for an age that never existed
