1970 Seemed Modern To Me
Orange paisley in the seventies prancing in my mind
Twisted up with lemons and avocados, fruit colors
Also shown in mushroom canister sets and Tupperware
On equal footing stark straight black and white stripes
Proving we are in a new age with additional freedom
I thought it was the most modern we would ever be
Not realizing we would eventually have the internet
Home computers? Phones without cords? No idea.
I thought the seventies were the modern we would ever be.
