Against The 70's Lyrics - Ball-hog Or Tugboat? - Mike Watt

I asked him if he knew what time he had 

He said he wasn't sure, maybe a quarter past 

The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's 

I peered in his eyes as we stood in line just to have a look 

But the pages I found looked like an unbound coloring book 

The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's 

The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's 

It's not reality, just someone else's sentimentality 

It won't work for you 

Baby boomers, selling you rumors of their history 

Forcing youth away from the truth of what's real today 

The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's 

Stadium minds with stadium lies gotta make you laugh 

Garbage vendors against true defenders of the craft 

The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's 

The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's 

It's not reality, just someone else's sentimentality 

Look what it did to us 

Speakin' as a child of the 70's 

The kids against the 70's, kids against the 70's 

The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's 

The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's 

The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's
