Everyone around me says
They like the days gone by
They wish it was the way it was
Before they had to cry
And everywhere, it's plain to see
Nostalgia's all the rage
A hundred million people shoutin'
Hide the current age

I want to see the people dancin'
I want to hear the people sing
(Mmm-mmm-mmm)
I want to find the people laughin'
(Whoa-oh)
Livin' in the world tomorrow brings

People seem to disregard
The fact that they can choose
The color of the moment
And the content of the news
And everyone's embarrassed to
Admit that they're alive
Forget the 1950s
It's now we should revive

I want to see the people dancin'
I want to hear the people sing
(Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa)
I want to find the people laughin'
(Mmm-mmm)
Livin' in the world tomorrow brings

And all the time we spent on feelin' strange
Won't be a waste if you can't see it
That feelin' bad can serve to rearrange
The kind of man you used to be
(Whoa-whoa-whoa-oh)

I want to see the people dancin'
I want to hear the people sing
I want to find the people laughin'
Livin' in the world tomorrow brings

I want to see the people dancin'
(Mmm-mmm-mmm)
I want to hear the people sing
(Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa)
I want to find the people laughin'
People laughin'
'Cause they're livin' in the world tomorrow brings
Livin' in the world tomorrow brings
(Whoa-whoa)
Livin' in the world tomorrow brings
