(Jian w/ Dave on certain harmonies)
Clem had a daydream, daydream from heaven
Picked up the headline, his country was made up of singers
And no more right-wingers
He wakes up to “Homeless are stupid, welfare is stupid
Private investment efficiency, cool fiscal plannin'”
Sounds like more Pat Buchanan
Back in his day job this afternoon
Unlikely he’ll move down to Cuba soon
Reluctant to find he’s stuck in the 90’s again
Clem reads of the old days, twenty years goes a long ways
“Challenge the system!” Relating is easy on a demo…
(Mike)
Did I meet you on that demo?
(Jian)
Now they’ll send it by memo
(Mike)
Fax me a memo
(Jian)
‘Cause there’s no need for the Peace Sign, ‘Post Republican “Peace Time”
Join the parade, wave the flag, Tell the world it’s your lackey
Abbie Hoffman was wacky
Riding the bike to his foreign car
Burning his mind in his VCR
Reluctant to find he’s stuck in the 90’s again
(All)
Reluctant to find he’s stuck in the 90’s again
(Jian, w/ rest doing harmonies)
and he’s lost…
don’t you know what it’s like to be lost?
and older…”tears on his shoulder”
real men are BOLDER!!
(harmonica solo)
(Jian)
Soon I’ll be 30, I don’t want to be 30
I’ve got some big plans, goodwill has some big hands
With each new computer screen, the world tells me I’m more green
Buy a new Game-Boy!
(All)
For the fun and the fashion…Just for the passion
(Jian)
Back in his day job this afternoon
Unlikely he’ll move down to Cuba soon
(All)
Reluctant to find he’s stuck in the 90’s again
Reluctant to find he’s stuck in the 90’s again
(everyone but Jian)
White lies, rich guys, hoarding a big prize
(Jian)
Reluctant to find he’s stuck in the 90’s again
(rest)
We’ve got work to do
(All)
Reluctant to find he’s stuck in the 90’s again
