Those Were The Days

Remember when answering the door

Meant inviting somebody inside

Remember when nobody panicked

No one whispered, “Be quiet and hide”

Remember when buying a burger

It resembled the one being shown

Remember when phone calls were risky

Cos the name didn’t show on the phone

Remember when men put their family

Ahead of a budding career

Remember when we’d be embarrassed

If our pants didn’t cover our rear

Remember when dancing was sexy

And sometimes could even be flirty

Remember when “busting a move”

Wasn’t twerking or anything dirty

Remember when we didn’t agree

But we still called each other a friend

Remember when being a Christian

Wasn’t something you had to defend

Remember when “reality” was real

Now on TV it's totally faked

Remember when a weed was for pulling

But now it’s for getting you “baked”

Remember when wanting the truth

We would simply just turn on the news

Remember when what they reported

It never reflected their views

Remember when shows were all censored

Like “Lucy” and “Leave It to Beaver”

Remember when our parents were cool

Yeah, I don’t remember that either
