Hate t’ say I’ve out-grown Macca - or is it truer
t’ suggest dingbats ringing ‘im make it démodé
with their braggadocio; yeah, been out West a
bit mate - I don’t care which bloody bit of been
there done that shit we’re into - grew up & out
of it with the rest of the 60s gang; th’ nouveau
set are spoiled brats compared to us originals
back when we didn’t have mobile telephones
Yeah, the mateship was great, ’n we cared for
the environment, but it was solitude that really
lead us there - a space to find who we were in
our own time without breakin’ heads or hearts,
not like the new gen media drones claiming its
their bloody idea on lavish satellite phones
