The New Isn’t So You Anymore

I'm back on my corrections
 Searching for a news in a newspaper
 I've been riding for an hour
 I just wish they were more creative
 It's a self-imposed position
 There's been drinking in the Safeway
 Be it so un-presidential
 I've got many reasons
 To shut down the plant for a while
 Michael Jackson just informed me
 That Santa Claus is coming to town
 I've tried hard to be good
 But the days are just that many
 Let's start again like stupid children
 Sir, I'm afraid that's not possible
 Just in case you need reminding
 The new isn't so you anymore
 I am lifted to experience
 You are carried by our conversation
 If we get out of our convictions
 There's still time to make the movie
 From the back I see the rooftops
 Of the people I grew up with
 It's just an observation
 Against the breeze
 I'm not living in slow motion
 I am breathing actual air
 Sorry dude, that just kind of slipped out
 The new isn't so you anymore
