lyrics

One day, in 2011 I was walking to Thrift Store
Picturing the records I desired in my mind
I was thinking of Rocky IV as I busted down the door
I ran to the sales rack and began to dig

There it was! Led Zeppelin II!
The initials on the back belonged to you
It was so scratched to Hell
(But baby) it had a story to tell

Every party you threw, of every friend who borrowed it
The basement flood of '96, all the extreme frisbee tricks

I looked inside and found the Eaton's receipt
$3.09 was all you paid for it
But when I put it on I felt defeat!

A skip on Living Loving Maid
Bacon crackle over the Ramble On fade
Moby Dick was popping more
Than the glass of Pepsi that I just poured

A Christmas gift from Uncle Nick
Because your parents wouldn't get you the Devil's shit
They didn't let you see KISS
They were hospitalized by Black Sabbath riffs
They used to listen to the Eagles
Until the Church made Hotel California illegal
Your Grandparents hated Elvis
and now you hate your kid's Billie Eilish

All the romantic things that I had thought
About this moldy trash I had soon forgot
I regretted that I even wasted a loonie
On a piss stained album that sounded so goofy
