Mugged On Memory Lane

I wish they'd stop makin' movies about
The things I liked when I was young
First they stole our memories and
Now they're trying to sell them back to us

There used to be a "little me"
I'd associate with a memory
Now I can buy him
Cuz he's for sale again

They'd sell us
Back to us

We all got mugged
They stole everything we used to love
We all got mugged
They stole everything we used to love
We got mugged

I think I overestimated
When I thought that I should care
Didn't you get that memo that stated
"There are no more new ideas?"

So they licensed all my memories
And now I'm rich on the royalties
Oh wait, It was all just a dream
Like all bad movies turn out to be

They'd sell us
Back to us
They'd sell us
Back to us

When everything starts to
Feel the same
That's when you know
You just got mugged on memory lane
On Memory lane

Does everything have to be the same
That's when I say
I just got mugged on memory lane
On memory lane

The media needs us to believe what they feed us
So, when the cameras start rolling
That's your cue to resist

We all got mugged
They stole everything we used to love
We all got mugged
They stole everything we used to love
We got mugged
