Lyrics Dark Ages - Jefferson Starship

Dark Ages

What time is it, boys and girls?
It’s time for the Dark Ages!
Your nightmares and traumas
Can make you rich and famous
Commercials can teach you
All that you need to know
Kiss my flag Don’t look back
The past is gaining on us Read my lips Watch my hips
These are the Dark Ages
George Orwell’s dream came true
But no one realizes
It crushed us so nicely
With so much wit and style
Entertainment might as well be Just like a rocket launcher
Too bad it’s in the hands of the enemy
Nobody believes me And so I know that I’m right
Charisma addiction gives me a deja vu Is this like Germany in the 1930s?
Do we have to Live through the apocalypse again?
Might be the Dark Ages
But we’re so happy
Happy to be here today
You never know when you
Might have to face the censor
So I don’t pretend to Want to make too much sense
Revolution on TV
In far-off distant countries
Too bad
t’s just another mini-series here
Nobody believes me And so I know that I’m right
Charisma hangover
Has got to wear off soon
Could this be like Eastern Europe
In the 1990s?
Will we ever get a chance
To have perestroika here?
