Silver Age

I was raised with the fear of God To hide away all those sinner's thoughts But late at night when the door was shut I worshiped the glorious sounds of Rock 'n' Roll smut For teenage taste do not be ashamed Sentimental with a dose of rage It got me through hell and it twice got me laid Set the dial for the Silver Age Boogie down to the community radio 45s on my stereo keep my turned on all night We're in the Silver Age I'm obsessed, I'm consumed by desire For the one taste I need tonight All my senses are merging as one Sight and sound going over and over and Soon you'll be stuck in my head Those silver tones send the VU red Dormant beast starts to rattle his cage I'm a slave for the Silver Age Are you down to forego fidelity? 45s feel so fine they keep me turned on all night We're in the Silver Age We're in the Silver Age We're in the Silver Age Come on down I am drawn to what I can't touch 'Cause diffidence is like the coward's crutch It takes resolve yeah we all must be brave Against the mindless, Fascist Bull-headed, homophobic Patriarchal, bastard cardinal Fundamental, Christian zealot Anti-vaxxin', Over-taxin' Coal-suckin', Peter Dutton-loving motorcade Ya fuckwits! Tax and tithe, tax and tithe, tax and tithe Ain't nothing we can do about it Just bend over kid No sir! I tell you what I'm gonna do Boogie down to Smith Street on a Tuesday night Play it loud with my friends until we feel alright We're in the Silver Age We're in the Silver Age We're in the Silver Age We're in the Silver Age We're in the Silver Age We're in the Silver Age We're in the Silver Age
