The New Isn’t So You Anymore

[Intro]
I'm back on my corrections
Searching for a news in a newspaper
I've been riding for an hour
I just wish they were more creative
It's a self-imposed position

[Verse 1]
There's been drinking in the Safeway
Be it so un-presidential
I've got many reasons
To shut down the plant for a while
Michael Jackson just informed me
That Santa Claus is coming to town
I've tried hard to be good
But the days are just that many

[Chorus 1]
Let's start again like stupid children
Sir, I'm afraid that's not possible
Just in case you need reminding
The new isn't so you anymore

[Verse 2]
I am lifted to experience
You are carried by our conversation
If we get out of our convictions
There's still time to make the movie

[Bridge]
From the back I see the rooftops
Of the people I grew up with
It's just an observation
Against the breeze

[Chorus 2]
I'm not living in slow motion
I am breathing actual air
Sorry dude, that just kind of slipped out
The new isn't so you anymore
