VHS Aesthetic

You're deleting all your mp3s
While you're tossing out your old CDs
Acting so much like a girl-next-door
As you're walking to the vinyl store
Even though
It's all online and you can listen to it there
It's not the sound, in fact you barely even care
It'll just look so cool
So super old school
Up on your wall
That's the fun of it all, now

Whatever goes up
Must come down
What is lost
Will be found
I haven't thought of you in so long
But you come around
I find you late at night
Back in my dreams
Just like old things do
They come back round brand new
Like

Buying all the baggy tees
And we tuck them all inside our jeans
Did you know fanny packs were so uncool
Now we wear them over shoulders
On our way to school
And you've got
A brand new camera
Shooting 8k automatic
You're still enamored by
That VHS aesthetic
You don't really mind if
It's anachronistic
'Cause you were born
In 2006

Whatever goes up
Must come down
What is lost
Will be found
I haven't thought of you in so long
But you come around
I find you late at night
Back in my dreams
Just like old things do
They come back round brand new
Like

Retro on new TV, Lost Ark on DVD
I want it that way, wannabe
Got all the young ones asking me
"Hey what the heck's a Walkman?"
You honestly never heard of that one? Man
Send love with a mixtape -- then leave it
Best believe when you receive it
I got them Dad shoes, call 'em sad shoes
Five years from now (what?)
I got them mandals causing scandals
Five years from now
I got them logos on my chest
Don't you think this brand's the best
Just like you, I'm so impressed
Come and go then get obsessed

Whatever goes up
Must come down
What is lost
Will be found
I haven't thought of you in so long
But you come around
I find you late at night
Back in my dreams
Just like old things do
They come back round brand new
Like you do
