The songs of dead rock stars fill the air
Their voices echo off of the skyscrapers
And the streets reverberate with faint applause
Tattooed brick and shadows from the decades lost
Long ago we lost our ability
To distinguish nostalgia from authenticity
What we do now has been done a thousand times before
Clothes that make the mannequin we abhor
Where are they now?
And what have we done?
When there’s a voice for every taste
The underground is commonplace
The songs of dead rock stars bleach the air
Spun by robot jockeys with tired ears
The disenfranchised youth have all gone grey
and casually accepted their society
