[Intro]
I-I-I-I’ve been keepin’ to myself and stayin’ out the way
I’ve been always on my lonely ’cause I can’t change
I-I’ve been seein’ how they talkin’ and I’m outraged
I-I’ve been takin’ care …
Fuck your friendship, i don’t need your friendship
Then you go and take another, [?]
Fuck your friendship, i don’t need your friendship
Never saying what you want, now you’re saying i’m rude
Whatchu …
[Verse 1]
All roses, that you gave me when fought but babe you’re poison
Sorry if I speak my thoughts, I’m just fed up
Why you not?
I don’t know why I do this
Like …
[Intro]
(Ay, Benji, you know this one bangs, innit)
You’ll be playin’ “Red Light, Green Light”
Player 156, you have been eliminated (Yo)
(Yo, MacMac, relax)
Yo, yo
[Chorus]
(It was us that did it, it was …
[Verse 1]
I know we were broken by the words we never spoke until tonight
All the little things that we ignored and now we drag into the light
[Pre-Chorus]
Holdin’ back the river
Holdin’ …
Quarter in a payphone 49
Drying laundry on the line 50
Watching Sun Tea in the window 51
Pocket Watch tellin’ me 52
Seems like only yesterday, I’d get a blank cassette 53
Record the country countdown, ’cause I couldn’t buy it yet 54
If we drove all the way to Dallas just to buy an Easter dress 55
We’d take along a Rand McNally, stand in line to pay for gas 56
God knows that shifting gears ain’t what it used to be
I learned to drive that 55 just like a queen, three on a tree 57
Hey whatever happened to, waitin’ your turn
Doing it all by hand, cause when everything is handed to you 58
It’s all only worth as much as the time you put in
In all just seems so good the way we had it
Back before everything became, automatic 59
If you had something to say
You’d write it on a piece of paper
Then you put a stamp on it
And they’d get it three days later 60
Boys would call the girls
And girls would turn them down 61
Staying married was the only way to work your problems out 62
Hey whatever happened to, waitin’ your turn
Doing it all by hand, cause when everything is handed to you
It’s all only worth as much as the time you put in
In all just seems so good the way we had it
Back before everything became, automatic
Automatic
Let’s put the windows down
Windows with the cranks 63
Come on let’s take a picture
The kind you gotta shake 64
Hey whatever happened to, waitin’ your turn
Doing it all by hand, cause when everything is handed to you
It’s all only worth as much as the time you put in
In all just seems so good the way we had it
Back before everything became, automatic
Miranda is talking about the old days when one had to go to a payphone just to make a call, paying with quarters depending on the length of the call, a contrast with today’s mobile phones, topped up with minutes right from a credit card in the comfort of home.
She talks of the good days when laundry was hanged outside to dry and smelled fresh, unlike today’s means of using a dryer to get the job done.
Miranda remembers the days when tea would be brewed outside without using any fire, just the sun.
Miranda also owned a pocket watch back in the day, pocket watches were specifically designed to be placed in the pocket, unlike the wrist watches and they often had a chain to be secured with either on the lapel or on a loop.
She recalls the days when the cassettes were king, way back in the day before today’s compact discs or CDs came along.
Back in olden days, people would record or dub their music on to the cassettes and later rewrite on the same cassette different material, something which Miranda clearly knows about.
Miranda remembers how quite sometime ago, holidays were something that people dressed up for especially over Easter, Thanksgiving or Christmas, if they could afford it.
Miranda and her family would rely on the old Randy McNally road map because in those days cars did not have GPS Navigation installed in the car. People also used to queue to pay for gas, unlike with today’s credit card usage.
Miranda has also had the opportunity to drive a manual car, not the automatic ones on the road today.
She wonders what happened to the days when everything was manual and one had to go out of their way to get what they wanted, unlike today’s system where everything is delivered right to the doorstep.
She is of the opinion that having everything automated has slowed down people and made them lazier. She is also of the old school thought that things that one had laboured for meant so much more than things that are easier to come by.
Miranda pays homage to postal letters and packages, which today are referred to as snail mail. Back then people had to buy nice looking writing pads and use nice pens to write and then put the finished missive in an envelope, complete with stamps for mailing.
She remembers how the boys would spend their money calling girls at payphones, just to be turned down. It can also be taken to mean that back then girls made the men earn their love unlike today where girls give their love freely.
Miranda says that in those days divorce was unheard of and frowned upon, therefore people had to learn to resolve their marital issues as compared to today where people walk away from their marriages without even trying to work things out.
Her nostalgic memories take her back to the time when vehicles were not automated and one had to roll down the window physically not with the push of a button.
She further indulges herself in her memories, when cameras were not digital and one had to give them a proper shake to reset.
