String vests and tank tops
hot pants and short socks.

Remember transistors?

Pop said,
I can't understand the music today
don't see what they mean
can't hear what they say
Mum said the same.

but it was the Walkman and Discman
and taking a risk man
that took us beyond the boundary
where each sound could be
digitally mastered.

now
I'm an old man
and
can IΒ understand the music today?
some say
I sound like my dad.
