[00:00.00]Positive Jam - The Hold Steady
[00:21.18]Woke up in the 20s and there were flappers
[00:23.78]And fruits in white suits
[00:27.03]It was right before the crash
[00:28.64]We got thrashed throughout the 30s
[00:30.48]Queuing up for soup with scabby sores
[00:34.16]Then they sent us off to war
[00:36.40]We came back in the 40s
[00:38.03]And there were wheelchairs guns and ticker tape
[00:40.72]We poured it on the floor
[00:42.55]And we made love to the interstates
[00:44.72]We got shiftless in the 50s
[00:47.08]Holding hands and going steady
[00:49.09]Twisting into dark parts
[00:50.70]Of the large Midwestern cities
[01:12.31]Tripped right through the 60s
[01:13.84]With some blissful little hippie
[01:16.16]Some Kennedy got shot
[01:17.58]While you were screwing San Francisco
[01:20.66]And the 70s got heavy
[01:21.99]We woke up on bloody carpets
[01:24.58]Got tangled up in gas lines
[01:26.41]And I guess that's where it started
[01:28.91]The 80s almost killed me
[01:30.37]Let's not recall them quite so fondly
[01:33.30]Some Kennedy OD'ed
[01:34.38]While we watched on MTV
[01:37.13]And in the 90s we were wired and well connected
[01:40.18]Put it all down on technology
[01:41.92]And lost everything we invested
[01:50.70]We gotta start it off with a positive jam
[01:57.33]Gotta start it with a positive jam man
[02:05.15]Gotta start it with a positive jam
[02:44.03]All the sniffling indie kids
[02:47.61]Hold steady
[02:51.09]And all you clustered up clever kids
[02:55.16]Hold steady
[02:58.72]And I got bored when I didn't have a band
[03:02.41]And so I started a band man
[03:05.96]We're gonna start it with a positive jam
[03:11.90]Hold steady
