Brave New World - Michael Penn[00:00:00]

Written by：Michael Penn[00:00:06]

Baby's busy hiding in the bassinet[00:00:10]

Wonderin' if the third world war started yet[00:00:12]

I told her I was pulling up and heading west[00:00:14]

She said she would have come but she was overdressed[00:00:16]

So I sent a picture postcard of a midwest bank[00:00:19]

She wrote me that she showed it to her new friend frank[00:00:21]

Who noticed in a window on the 19th floor[00:00:24]

A guy my age about to prove that man can't soar[00:00:26]

And he would also like to know[00:00:29]

If I could just check around before I left this town[00:00:33]

For slow mo footage of the tumble down so[00:00:36]

This may not be my best day[00:00:39]

But this ain't no golden age[00:00:44]

You looked pretty on the freeway[00:00:49]

Let's drive into the brave new world[00:00:54]

A van pulls up and someone offers me a ride[00:01:04]

The driver lost the map and he was terrified[00:01:06]

Everybody whispering to save his pride say[00:01:09]

Son would you be kind enough to be our guide[00:01:11]

The driver yells the one in back already tried[00:01:14]

But his memory is rusty and his vision tied[00:01:15]

Glasses and a lubricant were by his side but[00:01:18]

The tin man was inanimate the lion lied[00:01:21]

They did not want to see me go[00:01:23]

But I did not want to be another muskateer[00:01:28]

Plus the gas runs out before the van's in gear[00:01:30]

Please don't hit me if I do say[00:01:34]

But this ain't no golden age[00:01:38]

You looked so pretty on the freeway[00:01:43]

Let's drive into the brave new world[00:01:48]

Buster and his company look good in black[00:02:11]

They're looking for a way out of the cul de sac[00:02:13]

Tearing through the phone book and the almanac[00:02:16]

They all have dusty noses 'cause they sniff shellac[00:02:17]

They finally found the number of a matador[00:02:21]

Who rode up in a beemer with a pricey whore[00:02:23]

But buster wasn't quick enough[00:02:25]

He'd lock the door[00:02:27]

And rode off sayin' he'd be back before the war[00:02:28]

By then the night was falling slow[00:02:30]

And I did not want to stick around and just look old[00:02:35]

When I saw you pulling onto my soft shoulder[00:02:37]

This may not be my best day[00:02:41]

But this ain't no golden age[00:02:46]

You looked pretty on the freeway[00:02:51]

Let's drive into the brave new world[00:02:55]

Please don't hit me if I do say[00:03:01]

But this ain't no golden age[00:03:05]

You looked so pretty on the freeway[00:03:10]

Let's drive into the brave new world[00:03:15]

Yeh[00:03:22]
