Liner Notes

When I was a kid, I had a yellow bike with a banana seat and a flag. I'd ride it to the only place in town that had arcade machines and play Ms. Pac-Man and Ghosts 'n Goblins. I also made sure to get a Tasty-Freeze or a Creamsicle while there. Trekking to and fro was not just a trip from point A to B; it was an adventure, jumping curbs, trying to master wheelies, and finding a series of shortcuts. I may or may not have had a squirt gun, just in case. If I wasn't home before dark, though, Mom wasn't having any of it.

Lyrics

when i stopped at the mom and pop shoppe
and my mind would freeze from the ice cream
i’d toss a quarter in the video game machine
and i’d write my name for the high score
i pushed my cousins name down the line
and you better believe it was a good time
it was mine all mine
and I'll be home before my dinner time
or there’ll be hell to pay
and I wouldn't be comin' back again

it was a different time
it was a different time

i had to get back home
before the street lights glowed
i didn’t have a phone and i was all alone!

it was a different time
(it almost seems like a crime)
it was a different time

i had to get back home
before the street lights glowed
(it almost seems like a crime)
i didn’t have a phone and i was all alone!

it was a different time
it was a different time

i had to get back home
(it almost seems like a crime)
before the street lights glowed
i didn’t have a phone and i was all alone!

it was a different time
(it almost seems like a crime)
it was a different time

i had to get back home
(it almost seems like a crime)
before the street lights glowed
i didn’t have a phone and i was all alone!
