About
Country song about the throwaway culture of today
Lyrics
Start
Intro
Life was simpler way back when
Things were made by craftsmen's hands
Now we're living in a throwaway land
Where nothing's built to understand
Verse 1
Standing in the store just yesterday
Looking at the things they want me to pay
Plastic parts where steel used to be
Quality ain't what it used to be
[End][Start]
Verse 1
Standing in the store just yesterday
Looking at the things they want me to pay
Plastic parts where steel used to be
Quality ain't what it used to be
Pre-Chorus
They don't build them like they used to do
Everything's disposable, nothing's built to last it's true[Chorus]
Throw it all away and buy it new
That's what they want us all to do
Built to break in just a year or two
Modern life's got me singing the blues
Verse 2
Got a washing machine that's making noise
Called the repair man, he had no choice
Said the parts cost more than buying brand new
Something's wrong, but what can you do
Pre-Chorus
They don't build them like they used to do
Everything's disposable, nothing's built to last it's true
Chorus
Throw it all away and buy it new
That's what they want us all to do
Built to break in just a year or two
Modern life's got me singing the blues[Guitar Solo]
Instrumental breakdown featuring soaring guitar
Chorus
Throw it all away and buy it new
That's what they want us all to do
Built to break in just a year or two
Modern life's got me singing the blues
Chorus
Throw it all away and buy it new
That's what they want us all to do
Built to break in just a year or two
Modern life's got me singing the blues[End]
