Lyrics for A Tale Of Two Sixties
I'm hitting the road to heading nowhere Got no place to go I'm stuck inside my generation Round and round I go. I'm sick of the sound of Rolling Thunder Times they were a-changing And Rock'n'Roll died with Easy Rider Tearing up my traces. David Bowie was Hunky Dory Aladdin quite insane Give the sound of Arthur Lee with Forever Changes, I'll remember And more again, don't leave me ever Buddy Holly said, "Baby, please be mine" All the time. I'm cutting out now before the New Wave Takes my surf board flair Remember the time when Zappa said "Punk, where you going with that Flower in your hair?" There's so many who's who's, Rolling Stones, Rod Stewards and Small Faces And Tommy's the King of Pinball flings That chases my generation. David Bowie was Hunky Dory Aladdin quite insane Give the sound of Arthur Lee with Forever Changes, I'll remember And more again, don't leave me ever Buddy Holly said, "Baby, please be mine" All the time.
