No one wore
Designer jeans
Or left a message
On your machine
At the movies
A film you’d see
It wasn’t watched
On your TV
Just a few channels
On your set
No remote
For you to get
A credit card
You couldn’t swipe
And no computer
To use to type
Catalog shopping
Wasn't on line
Sears and Roebuck
Was divine
Metal detectors
Didn’t exist
Food cost less
On your grocery list
No child proff caps
Or taping your shows
Women wore stockings
But not panty hose
No luggage inspected
Before you flew
And no one thought
Of harming the crew
Pearl Harbor was bombed
The ships were ablaze
It wasn't always
The good old days
