The "Crew Cuts" say... Life could be a dream

Other than my poetry, there are just 2 or 3 videos I'll bring here from a video site on the other side of the ether. This is one of them.

We were born to mothers who smoked and drank . . .
Our cribs were covered in lead based paint . . .
No child proof lids, no seat belts in cars . . .
Rode bikes with no helmets, and still here we are .   more.... . still here we are . . .

We got daddy’s belt when we misbehaved . . .
Had three TV channels you got up to change . . .
No video games and no satellite . . .
All we had were friends and they were outside . . . playin’ outside.

It was a different life . . .
When we were boys and girls . . .
Not just a different time . . .
It was a different world.

School always started the same every day . . .
The pledge of allegiance, then someone would pray . . .
Not every kid made the team when they tried . . .
We got disappointed, and that was all right . . . we turned out all right . . .

It was a different life . . .
When we were boys and girls . . .
Not just a different time . . .
It was a different world.

No bottled water . . . we’d drink from a garden hose . . .
And every Sunday, all the stores were closed.

It was a different life . . .
When we were boys and girls . . .
Not just a different time . . .
It was a different world.

It was a different life . . .
When we were boys and girls . . . . . . . . . .
