lyrics

I want everything to sound the way that it sounded in the 70's
I want a Fender Princeton Reverb, a mellotron, and an ARP Odyssey
I want a 12-string Gretsch and an 8-track cassette,
a fixed up Hammond organ that smells like cigarettes
I want everything to sound the way it sounded in the 70's

I want everything to sound the way that it sounded in the 60's
I want that wall of sound around me just like Phil Spector, but less murdery
I want a real echo chamber and an old Fuzz Face,
a Uni-Vibe pedal and a Rickenbacker bass
I want everything to sound the way it sounded in the 60's

The writing's on the wall, the writing's on the wall
This nostalgia will be the death of me
The writing's on the wall, but the worst part of all
is it's build upon a faulty collective memory

I want everything to sound the way that it sounded in the 80's
You know those 303 bass lines sure know how to move all the ladies
I want those cheap samples from a Series I Fairlight,
the gated snare drum sound from "In the Air Tonight"
I want everything to sound the way it sounded in the 80's

It's all the same to me, it's all the same to me
Any yesteryear will do just fine
It's all the same to me, because I don't trust my memory
and every sound grows sweeter with some time

I'll want everything to sound the way it sounded in 2017
You know I'll really miss the digital sound of that auto-tune robot sing
'Cause I'm a sucker for that legendary studio lore
and everything was better in the time before
I want everything to sound the way it doesn't sound anymore
It doesn't sound anymore, it don't sound that way no more
