The Stooges

The Stooges (also known as Iggy and The Stooges) are an American rock band from Ann Arbor, Michigan first active from 1967 to 1974, and later reformed in 2003. Although they sold few records in their original incarnation and often performed for indifferent or hostile audiences, the Stooges are widely regarded as instrumental in the rise of punk rock, as well as influential to alternative rock, heavy metal and rock music at large. The Stooges were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2010. more »

An old movie magazine
Gold wrapper in between
Pages yellowing with time,
It’s tearing up my mind

Plastic snowflake souvenir,
A city far from here,
But it hasn’t moved in years,
I’m breaking up inside

[Chorus]
Hang on to your girl,
'Cause this is an unfriendly world

Birthday cards from years ago
These will kill you slow
Is it worth this pain to grow?
I guess I’ll never know

Christmas toys and picture frames,
All the photos locked away,
Not to live with day by day,
Just a walk down memory lane

[Chorus]

Business men with nasty tricks
Followers of 666,
Fame and fortune made me sick
And I can’t get out

Out the window there’s a view
Grassy hills and flowers too
Lovers of the chosen few
So maybe me and you

An old movie magazine
Gold wrapper it in between
Pages yellowing like me
Will I ever be free?

[Chorus: x2]
