Little Golden Age

You lived in a place long, long ago
Where nothing moves and time goes slow
And someone sang about the golden age
In Cenetaph 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, stars shone out of phase
And the rain came down, cassettes wore out, oh no!
Then you left town feeling pretty down
With your headphones and your coat
And your dirty graduation down. You were

In the bedroom singing radio songs
Sing them loud, sing them all night, Emily
You needed something to help you along

Freeze, freeze, freeze, little golden age
Oh, freeze, freeze, freeze, little golden age
Oh, oh

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
Oh, who would want you anyway

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

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

My little golden age, golden age
My little golden age, golden age
My little golden age, little golden age
My little golden age, little golden age
