I fell in love in the 70s I fell apart when she flipped the record It was a simpler time She didn't make it complicated And if she did And if she did it didn't matter to me She wore a flower in her hair She drew a portrait of me on her blue jeans She said I reminded her of someone She said I made everything complicated And if I did And if I did it didn't matter to me And I was always writing her letters from the campus: "How are you?" And she was always writing me letters from the campus: "I'm fine."

Something in the way Something sad and lonesome feeling so right You've got bills to pay You've got a reputation, I've got a question but I can't explain The station doesn't work from this far away And if you've got the money, well then you have everything And if you've got the time, then so do I Couldn't get it off my mind Couldn't shake the feeling that I was feeling alright Is there another way? Seeing you again was revealing of the person that I used to be But a person like you is a sore sight to see And if you've got the money, well then you have everything And if you've got the time, then so do I

Punks! 01:19
All across the day the punks make dinner for their friends And punch the walls, and drink red wine from a glass See them run and play, the punks babysit their little brothers And they go to the park and get high on the swingsets

Voyager 03:04
In the future where I live Where the world's a thought we give And o'er the moon the sights of men On to Mars and back again Tell me about my birthday when I was five Should we fly to further things? Touch the stones on Saturn's rings? And dig down craters far below? And see the Earth from the shores of Lo? Tell me about my birthday when I was nine Gone for eighteen thousand years Unto a world my home appears The Voyager so frail and worn But to the world a child is born And tell me about the world that we left behind Tell me about the world that we left behind

Seeing you again for the very first time since way back when I felt like a fish that forgot how to swim And if you've got the money, well then you have everything And if you've got the time, then so do I
