Back in the day you say you had it made

Hanging out all night and getting laid

All the colours had shown brighter

And your heart was so much lighter

Back in the day you say things weren't so lame

Now everybody seems to be the same

There's nothing happy here

And I don't think you're thinking clear



Your attitude is self-defeating

Your history's not worth repeating

Your life was just as lame back then

As you say it is now

Your rose coloured glasses deceive you

Reminisce all night

I'm not listerning to you

Cause 5 years from now will be the same old story anyhow



Back in they day you were a whiney little fuck

You hated the whole world for your bad luck

Your situation sucked you didn't change it

Now you tell a story but you rearrange it

Back in the day your rut wasn't so deep

That is the memory that you choose to keep

As you grow older it gets deeper

Try to climb out but the walls are steeper



Your attitude is self-defeating

Your history's not worth repeating

Your life was just as lame back then

As you say it is now

Your rose coloured glasses deceive you

Reminisce all night

I'm not listerning to you

Cause 5 years from now will be the same old story anyhow



You've got a life to live right now

You've got a self to build somehow

Trying to avoid the future?

Are you just afraid of failure?

I won't listern to your stories when

I see you've been killing time again

Your attitude is self-defeating

Your history's not worth repeating
