FM Static - Flop Culture

When I was young I used to turn up the bass and Rock out to Billy Jean and Thriller in my basement When Michael Jackson was a pop sensation Every second song on the radio station Remember Axl telling us to have patience And records sold without any affiliation When William Hung and music still had no relation Someone tell Janet, bring back the rhythm nation No gloves, no zipper coats No more yellow submarines or kokomos If we could ask Luther Vandross, I bet he'd wonder the same Can you tell me what happened to Michael Jackson And MTV trading music for acting Avril Lavigne's on the cover of Maxim Woah-oh woah-oh-oh-oh And there's a million other people with a lot on their minds But for me I'm not the type to let a good thing die If we could bring The Beatles back to rock it one more time We could turn this mess around one beat at a time When I was young I used to turn up my headphones Flip through the pages of the Rolling Stones I used to turn it up on my drive home With McJagur singing "It's Only Rock n' Roll" No gloves, no zipper coats Just rockstars eating their filet mignon Where did Van Halen put guitar solo's? I bet they'd wonder the same Can you tell me what happened to Michael Jackson And MTV trading music for acting Avril Lavigne's on the cover of Maxim Woah-oh woah-oh-oh-oh Can you tell me what happened to Michael Jackson And bands reuniting just to get a reaction Britney should've never covered satisfaction No, no woah-oh-oh-oh And there's a million other people with a lot on their minds But for me I'm not the type to let a good thing die If we could bring The Beatles back to rock it one more time We could turn this mess around one beat at a time You're killing me, stop playing with this whole mirage And replace the music with hydraulic cars I'd trade my first favorite Ovation guitar If we could retrace the steps we've made so far Can you tell me what happened to Michael Jackson And MTV trading music for acting Avril Lavigne's on the cover of Maxim Woah-oh woah-oh-oh-oh Can you tell me what happened to Michael Jackson And bands reuniting just to get a reaction Britney should've never covered satisfaction No, no woah-oh-oh-oh
