1986

Whatever happened to American bands
Like in 1986
You had Black Flag and the X
You had Husker Du playing the sticks
And the Replacements they kept it all in
Well, nobody gave a damn
'Bout the MTV, what you were to me
It was punk, it was sick, it was bad
And here we are in the new world, trying to get by
In the new world, waiting for the next revolution to hatch

Let's make it alright
People used to play guitar
They'd go walking and they'd smoke a joint
Talk about songs and stories,
Nobody hung out at the mall
Didn't have no reverb machine
Man, you had the Long before Nirvana and Hole,
Man there was bands and they had a soul
Here we are trying to [get by???] in the new world
Here we are trying to hang on to
What ever happened

Trapped in the new world
Trapped in the new world
Trapped in the new world
Trapped in the new world
