"The 90's Was The 60's Turned Upside Down" lyrics
Woodstock, acid rock, JFK
The times, they were changin' in the USA
A lot of good ideas that never got too far
Like savin' the planet and stoppin' the war
Oh, forty years later, it's the same ol' thing
We gotta walk the talk if it's ever gonna change
The '90s was the '60s turned upside down
Yeah, the '90s was the '60s turned upside down
If we're gonna get it right this time, we got to turn it around
Nelson Mandella, Martin Luther King
One had a family, other had a dream
To make it unlawful because it is a sin
To judge another man by the color of his skin
In this changin' world, we need a change of heart
Lovin' one another is a good place to start
The '90s was the '60s turned upside down
Yeah, the '90s was the '60s turned upside down
If we're gonna get it right this time, we got to turn it around
Fidel Castro, ninety miles and weep
Better build a bomb shelter, better build it today
Now there's bombs in the schools, guns everywhere
Drive-by shooters got us all runnin' scared
An eye for an eye, everybody dies
We gotta turn the other cheek if we're gonna survive
The '90s was the '60s turned upside down
Yeah, the '90s was the '60s turned upside down
If we're gonna get it right this time, we got to turn it around
Yeah, turn it around
Turn it around
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Marijuana, masculine, LSD
People everywhere just tryin' to be free
Well, it used to be fun, used to be cool
Now there's crack babies droppin' out of nursery school
You can point a finger, you can walk the floor
Stop sweepin' 'round your own front door
Sulfur dioxide, DDT
Dumpin' out garbage in the deep blue sea
There's a hole in the ozone lettin' in heat
I shudder to think about the food we eat
Life as we know it is slippin' away
I hope we don't blow it, that's all I got to say
The '90s was the '60s turned upside down
Yeah, the '90s was the '60s turned upside down
If we're gonna get it right this time, we got to turn it around
Turn it around
The '90s was the '60s (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
The '90s was the '60s (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
The '90s was the '60s (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
The times, they were changin' in the USA
A lot of good ideas that never got too far
Like savin' the planet and stoppin' the war
Oh, forty years later, it's the same ol' thing
We gotta walk the talk if it's ever gonna change
The '90s was the '60s turned upside down
Yeah, the '90s was the '60s turned upside down
If we're gonna get it right this time, we got to turn it around
Nelson Mandella, Martin Luther King
One had a family, other had a dream
To make it unlawful because it is a sin
To judge another man by the color of his skin
In this changin' world, we need a change of heart
Lovin' one another is a good place to start
The '90s was the '60s turned upside down
Yeah, the '90s was the '60s turned upside down
If we're gonna get it right this time, we got to turn it around
