We Gave Up Everything Just To Sit

If The Beatles Or The 60's Had A Message, It Was 'learn To Swim. And Once You've Learned - Swim!

Now, In The Sixties We Were Naive, Like Children. Everybody Went Back To Their Rooms And Said 'we Didn't Get A Wonderful World Of Just Flowers And Peace And Happy Chocolate, And It Won't Be Just Pretty And Beautiful All The Time,' And Just Like Babies Everyone Went Back To Their Rooms And Sulked. 'we're Going To Stay In Our Rooms And Play Rock And Roll And Not Do Anything Else, Because The World's A Nasty Horrible Place, Because It Didn't Give Us Everything We Cried For.' Right? Crying For It Wasn't Enough.

I Was Different, I Was Always Different. Why Didn't Anybody Notice Me?

I Just Said What I Said And It Was Wrong. Or It Was Taken Wrong. And Now It's All This.

I Regret Profoundly That I Was Not An American And Not Born In Greenwich Village. It Might Be Dying, And There Might Be A Lot Of Dirt In The Air You Breathe, But This Is Where It's Happening.
