lyrics

When I was younger I could go down yonder
To the record store
Flip thru the covers one after another
I was never bored

But now everything is on CD
And they don’t have shit
Whatever you are looking for
The guy with a nose ring says
They gotta order it
Dude!

I miss the hiss - Them vinyl records are the best
I tell you this – They put your hearing to the test
A state of bliss – Because the music never stopped
I miss the hiss the snap the crackle and the pop
Oh yes…

The covers all rocked and you didn’t need to check ‘em
With a microscope microscope
The albums were the size of a dinner plate
Stuffed into an envelope envelope

But now everything is on CDs
And they don’t have shit don’t have shit
Whatever you are looking for
That guy with a nose ring says
They gotta order it
Dude!

*

Dude!
Wish I was younger and going down yonder
Like I done before like I done before
Flipping through the records
One after another
Couldn’t ask for more I couldn’t ask for more

But now everything is on CDs
And they don’t have shit they don’t have shit
Whatever you are looking for
That guy with a nose ring says
They gotta order it
Dude!
