Seems Like Yesterday Lyrics

It was a different landscape then

The nineteen seventies, plimsolls hanging in the trees

VW's and VCR's

Carnaby street boutiques, disco, glam and chic

Summers never seemed to end

The sun that burned my face, that warm embrace

Tarmac melting in the heat

The countryside untouched, we never wanted much

Jeans that never seemed to fit, Polypropylene was shit

Hair you'd never want to cut, like on Charlie George's nut

All I'd really want to do, was sing these songs and play for you

Now the years have gone away, but it seems like yesterday

Everything was simple then

Basic technology, three channels on TV

Nothing's changed, but then again

Peace and love and hate, war and Watergate

Writing songs in my bedroom, post economic boom

Tape machine is in record, they're the chords to My Sweet Lord

Get the boys in for a jam, we've got a gig in Birmingham

Scrounging fags, like nothing else, but it seems like yesterday

We never thought technology, would be in everything you see

Thinking thoughts of you and me, seems like yesterday
