The Rebel Black Dot Song o' This Auspicious Day


Dance Hall Crashers, "Old and Grey" from The Old Record (1989-1992) (The Last Angry Man)

Skammentary: There are indisputable similarities between "Old and Grey" & The Aquabats!' "Playdough!," both in theme & pop-cultural references.
"I remember when I used to be so young and so carefree,
Now my life is full of problems and responsibility,
Getting home by four to watch
Richie Rich and Scooby-Doo
Was all that ever worried me, it was all I had to do.
Looking at the older kids, always thought they were so great,
Saw them hanging out at parties, always got to stay out late,
By the time I reached that age the novelty had all but faded,
Now that we are old and grey we've become annoyed and dated…"
