The Good Old Days

I believe what I was told
I listened to the stereo
Under the covers of my bed
The stories of the old days
The six wives of Henry
Origin into the center of the earth

The place of my birth
Was the music that my brothers
And my sister played to me
And how I believed
The stories that they told me

'Cause I'm a believer
I believe in the stories
From the songs, from the old days
Believer
I believe in the world that they told me existed
On the vinyl and the tapes
And from the CD players that came later
So much later than the good old days

Down the yellow brick road
I drive a yellow taxi to a yellow submarine
Just for fun
A super tramp symphony
A full beggar's banquet
Or a night at the opera

For all it's worth
The place of my birth
Was the music that my brothers
And my sister played to me
And how I believed
The stories that they told me

'Cause I'm a believer
I believe in the stories
From the songs, from the old days
Believer
I believe in the world that they told me existed
On the vinyl and the tapes
And from the CD players that came later
So much later than the good old days

Someone saved my life every single night
When the words and the music played
When the records took me away
Yeah, someone saved my life every single night
I just listened to the music (listened to the music)
To the words in the music (words in the music)
To the words in the music
Listen to the words in the music
Words in the music
Listen to the words in the music
Music, music, music, music, music

The place of my birth
Was the music that my brothers
And my sister played to me
And how I believed
The stories that they told me

'Cause I'm a believer
I believe in the stories
From the songs, from the old days
Believer
I believe in the world that they told me existed
On the vinyl and the tapes
And from the CD players that came later
So much later than the good old days

I believe what I was told
I listened to the stereo
Under the covers of my bed
