The Lyrics

ok, so the other day I went to this place where they played nothing but new and horrible music, so I said that I'd seize the day when they played some older music that I like 100000 times beter than the new music, so, I wrote this song:
Day after day I get more confused
to this Id be snoring away
you know this music sucks its true
Its wrecking our brains, aint it a shame

Give me the beach boys and Billy Joel
and when I hear old time rock and roll
Ill seize the day

Give the the beach boys and Billy Joel
and when i hear old time rock and roll
Ill seize the day

why cant they see that they're wasting their time
they dont understand the things I do
Aerosmith is great, the stones are fine
but they have to play Nelly and Usher too

Give the the beach boys and Billy Joel
and when i hear old time rock and roll
Ill seize the day

and when my mind aint free,
I need a melody to move me
and when Im feeling blue,
Pink aint gunna soothe me,

Give the the beach boys and Billy Joel
and when i hear old time rock and roll
Ill seize the day

play it, wont you play it
