Sixties Children

 

Well way back in the sixties

most of you weren’t even born

but you dress up like your mom and daddy

twenty years before

you listen to their music

and you do your very best

how to recreate the spirit

and naiveness of the past

 

While your dad is cleaning

his Mercedes Benz

and mom is watching sitcoms on TV

you start your record player

and let C.S.N. and Y.

tell you how to raise your children

and to teach your parents well

 

Skip the light fandango

turning cartwheels ‘cross the floor

you were only waiting

for this moment to arise
