Little Golden Age

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

You live in a place long, long ago
Where nothing moves and time goes slow
And someone sang about a golden age
In summertime park, drinking in the dark
This place was the machine that put the iron in your heart

So we hung around, and we hung around, and we hung around for days
In the parking lot stoned, the stars shone out of phase
And the rain came down, cassettes were out, oh no
And you left town, feeling pretty down
With your headphones, and your coat, and your dirty graduation gown

You were in the bedroom singing radio songs
Sing 'em loud, sing 'em all night, Emily
Needed something to help you along

Freeze, freeze, freeze little golden age
Freeze, freeze, freeze little golden age

And I don't miss my little golden age
'Cause the body takes the heart
Takes the heart from place to place
But this place still stands, this place remains unchanged
And you can't go back but who would want to anyway

You were in your bedroom singing radio songs
Sing 'em loud, sing 'em all night, Emily
Needed something to help you along

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

My little golden age, golden age (oh, oh, oh)
My little golden age, golden age (oh, oh, oh)
My little golden age, golden age (oh, oh, oh)
My little golden age, golden age (oh, oh, oh)
