lyrics

LET'S STAY DEAD

You talk about the 90's, you say it's where you wanna be
Wish I was back in the 60's 'cause that's the place for me
You talk about revolution as if it's something new
You don't know of all the navel gazing that we went through

I've got the 60's on my mind
Those miniskirts and orange blinds
They remind me how life used to be
I've got the 60's on my mind
When love was never hard to find
And life was always free and easy

You talk about the music today - well it sends me to sleep
Wish I was back in the 60's when vinyl was cheap
You talk about the drug scene - you say it gets up your nose
But when I'm back in the 60's there's other places it goes

You know the 60's blew my mind
When people used to be so kind
Where have all the funny flowers gone
I've got the 60's on my mind
Before young lovers got refined
They're now faxing all day long

I wanna go back in time, down the channels of my mind
I wanna take a trip inside my head
Get back, get down. Take your clothes off, groove around
I don't wanna live so let's stay dead

I've got the 60's in my heart
Legalising’s just the start
Grow your own and grow your hair
I've got the 60's in my life
Swapped my needles, swapped my wife
Now they're telling me not to share
But it's not fair

I love myself, I love myself, I love myself, I love myself
I love myself, I love myself, I love myself, I love myself
I love myself, I love myself, I love myself, I love myself
I love myself, I love myself, I love myself, I love myself
I love myself, I love myself, I love myself, I love myself
I love myself, I love myself
