Nothing Worse Than An Old Song

[Jim Colyer]

Dripping with yesterday's sex
Irrelevant, from the past
Out of style, out of step
No wonder it didn't last
Not part of the modern world
Don't fit in this new age
Don't fit the New World Order
It's of a bygone day

Nothing Worse Than An Old Song
Off the radio, off the charts
Worn out and out of sync
From the era of our parents
It ain't cool, it's out of touch
Lost all meaning, sounds all wrong
Old fashioned, corny as hell
Nothing Worse Than An Old Song

Might be some cheesy doo wop
Or from the British invasion
Or from the big band era
Madonna, Michael Jackson
Instruments so out of tune
Vocals just a bit off key
Lyrics don't make much sense
Dated technology

Nothing Worse Than An Old Song
Off the radio, off the charts
Worn out and out of sync
From the era of our parents
It ain't cool, it's out of touch
Lost all meaning, sounds all wrong
Old fashioned, corny as hell
Nothing Worse Than An Old Song

We don't need quaint memories
Three minutes of antiquity

Nothing Worse Than An Old Song
Off the radio, off the charts
Worn out and out of sync
From the era of our parents
It ain't cool, it's out of touch
Lost all meaning, sounds all wrong
Old fashioned, corny as hell
Nothing Worse Than An Old Song
