lyrics

When the old people get back together
They eat the ancient foods
And lament about things that we consider unsavory today
Hope, you torment them, you do
Wheeled into a corner all alone
And dreaming dreams of you

When the old music’s on I get weepy
Like all setting sons
And lament about the genius of my heroes: irrelevant today
Like a coat on the hook of a door in a building
Set for demolition soon

And if there’s any more bile down there
You need to let fly just do
Another summer’s now slipping away from me

When the old masters get back together
We make mental notes
And lament about moments that we blundered
Still with us today

Clock watch and drift off, we do
Racing toward a future in a stupor dreaming dreams of you
Bracing for a future in a stupor dreaming dreams of you

Like a coat on the hook of a door in a building
Set for demolition soon
