Tongue In Cheek
Tongue In Cheek
Who is that new upstart
Yelling on my TV
Where is Archie Bunker?
Let things be like they used to be
And that pretty old woman,
Claiming to have the floor.
Why can’t I hear the news, or
Opinions of Eleanor.
Another channel there’s that old man,
With flailing arms and waving white mane,
Where is Grandpa Walton?
Things just aren’t the same.
Remember the “Good old Days?”
With the wars and Woodstock and the rest?
Where are the Beatles when you need them?
“Let it be” their advice was the best.
Who are these new upstarts
Dancing on my TV
Get them off, I beg you.
Bring back what used to be.
