about

This track was taken from Ian's mono demo tape, and has been remixed for stereo.

lyrics

In the beginning
The universe was created
But some people thought it was here before then
I wish we could live forever
Go back in time for proof
But alas everyone’s born to die

When I was a little boy
I used to crawl and loll around
Do anything to get X’s and O’s
Now I’m much older
But I yearn to be younger
I’m singing for my freedom and do as I please

I was so happy when
I got sent to writers’ camp
I wrote so many songs there
And came back with a writers’ cramp

They’ll always come back for more
Remember make peace and not war
For those who relax and do
This next bit is just for you

Here come musicians of the
British Invasion The
Beatles the Zombies the
Rolling Stones
Do you remember when
Our country fought back with
Beach boys and
Monkees
And Byrds and the Clash?

Here come the flower children
They look so cute and cuddly
With their bell bottoms and
Tie-dyed shirts
Tossing their flowers to
Everyone they run into
But this ain’t ‘bout flowers
It's about love.
