90s Aesthetic
Back in my day
Grunge was only one-fifth
Dead
Grunge was only one-fifth
Dead
We clung to ideals like
Authenticity and electric guitars
Authenticity and electric guitars
An 808 was an embarrassment
Hidden behind a keytar in your
Uncle’s basement
Hidden behind a keytar in your
Uncle’s basement
We didn’t believe in hating
One politician or another
We hated them all
One politician or another
We hated them all
Aesthetic was for losers
Identifying with your brand
Made you a sell-out
Which is why we wore T-shirts
With laundry logos or some such
We didn’t have to label it
Ironic
You were either in on the joke
Or you were probably a jock
Who listened to Rancid
And called himself a punk

And called himself a punk
Now GET OFF MY LAWN,
Sell-out
Sell-out

I hate you, spell check.
Aesthetic was for POSERS!!!
Spellcheck blows
I like the buildup and directness at the end.
100% with you… but an 808 in the hands of a genius is punk af!
Wonderfully self-aware. Good piece.
Time is ever-changing, but generations endure until their time is up…
