lyrics

It was the dawning of a new age
The fall of 2008
I had a crappy job
And I was a giant slob

Music died when the summer had passed
Life turned to deification fast
My wife grew really ill
Everyone's voice became shrill

I miss the days when we jumped over cows
Not really caring because we didn't know how
And I'm happy and I'm sad you're not lonely in a crowd
But I'll always miss the costumes and you playing so loud

Now we've hit 2009
And I've got less reason to whine
Ramon and I made comic books
Signing those was off the hook

And my wife is much better now
Since pneumonia isn't hanging around
Without her I would have lost my head
I kind of like those vows we said

And I miss the days when we jumped over cows
Not really caring because we didn't know how
And I'm happy and I'm sad you're not lonely in a crowd
But I'll always miss the music and you playing so loud

Why won't you, Why won't you take me back (take me back)
Why won't you, Why won't you take me back (take me back)

Has anyone see the future
I bet some wish they hadn't

But I don't care what they say
I'm gonna live for today
