Yesteryear Songtext
von Terramara

You don′t think time really matters
Wait here, the train's gonna shatter your roadblocks
And grind you into dust
Trends fall with a change in the weather
Why try to put ′em back together with duct tape
And strands of musty thread

These are the days we're living in the haze of yesteryear
(These are the days, yesteryear)
When you were young and everywhere you looked was green and clear
(When you were young, green and clear)
These are the days we're living in a boomer biosphere
(These are the days, yesteryear)
Someday you′ll find the air is not so bad outside

You can laugh at my clothes if you want to
But you′re a debriefed statue holding onto the past
Let's see how long you last
Watching reruns of Leave It To Beaver
When are you gonna trade in the Cleaver for Beavis
And Butt-Head′s little smirk


These are the days we're living in the haze of yesteryear
(These are the days, yesteryear)
When you were young and everywhere you looked was green and clear
(When you were young, green and clear)
These are the days we′re living in a boomer biosphere
(These are the days, yesteryear)
Someday you'll find the air is not so bad outside
Bad outside
Bad outside

We′re just counting off the weekends
Running after leaves, running out of time
We try to take back what we've lost
No matter what the cost to the here and now
Here and now

Doesn't matter if you′ve been there done that
You′ve found a home there, now you never wanna come back
To read tomorrow's mail
One day you′re a crack theologian
Ten years and you're passing out the Trojans at Kmart
Just look how far you′ve come
You've come


These are the days we′re living in the haze of yesteryear
(These are the days, yesteryear)
When you were young and everywhere you looked was green and clear
(When you were young, green and clear)
These are the days we're living in a boomer biosphere
(These are the days, yesteryear)
Someday you'll find the air is not so bad
Someday you′ll find the air is not so bad
Someday you′ll find the air is not so bad outside
Bad outside
Bad outside
Bad outside
