I have a bike and I ride it around town
Seein all the beautiful things in my neighbourhood
Listenin to the breeze as it rolls out to sea
I wish that I could take you there with me
Time ticks by as I close my eyes and dream
Oh, the 70s are dead and gone
And the 80s were just the waste of new game shows
Then you and I was born and we wanted something more
And its time for us to shine
And its time to make things right
Oh, I sit in silence and watch the clouds go by
And try to make sense of each passing day
Though Im not all alone, I still feel all alone
As Im living in this lonely country
Oh, in 1989 things changed
And the world realized its okay to turn the page
But what does that mean, and does it involve me?
Cause its time for us to shine
And its time to make things right
I am a mime and I live inside a box
But you know that the walls isnt really there
One day Ill escape like the ghost of Kurt Cobain
And Ill sing about the way you still be
Life goes by as I look to the sky and scream
Oh, its been about a hundred years
Since we all began hurriedly doing our thing
And we were almost there in the 60s
But there was just one thing left to do
Just to give birth to me and you
Oh, the 70s are dead and gone
And the 80s was just the waste of terrible news
Then you and I was born and we wanted something more
And its time for us to shine
And its time to make things right
Hey, mhmm
