"I am the sun of the future
25 years from now, I think
try recalling the Golden Age
when we heard these words for the first time
Please come back to the exact spot we're at
we're speaking right now

Never forget the Golden Age
Doncha hear that this song is forever
Never forget the Golden Age
Notice it didn't remain as remembered
Never forget the Golden Age
A quarter century from now
Never forget the Golden Age

It never used to make you sad
but now you lost what you never knew you had
This is an artifact of that
This is an artifact of that

If this is you, 25 years accrued
Disregard the following's for the old you
who hasn't heard this before
"Son I gotta tell ya bout the future see 
It's a living hell, it's not at all like the golden age
They're gonna kill your comforts with worries
Pertaining to your health, Pertaining to your future
Pertaining to ya mama"
