My good old MTV days

V3.5

[Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 1] Turn on the tube, it’s half past four Flannel shirt and posters on my door Long hair flyin’ on Headbangers Ball, Metallica’s riffs shook down the hall. KORN brought the angst, raw and real, While Rage screamed truth we all could feel. Bon Jovi sang of 'livin’ on a prayer", Air guitars and fists in the air. That screen was fire, our holy shrine, Music spoke what we couldn’t define. No scrolling feeds, no auto-play Just waiting hours for Green Day [Bridge] We taped the shows on VHS Rewound the magic, nothing less Before the memes, before the streams There were dreams inside those scenes [Chorus] My good old MTV days, Where the rhythm burned and the screen would blaze. Rewind the tape, let the music play I wanna go back to my MTV days Flash me back to that neon craze, I miss my good old MTV days. Forever young in that retro phase, Long live my good old ... ... MTV days ... ... my good old ... ... MTV days! [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 2] From “People are People” to “U Can’t touch this”, Each style clashed, but we all could dig it. Shakira swayed with hips so free, Jennifer Lopez, Alicia Keys with honesty. Britney danced in schoolgirl style, Pop exploded, mile for mile. We flipped through genres, day and night, Grunge to glam, and "Black or white". [Bridge] We taped the shows on VHS Rewound the magic, nothing less Before the memes, before the streams There were dreams inside those scenes [Chorus] My good old MTV days, Where the rhythm burned and the screen would blaze. Rewind the tape, let the music play I wanna go back to my MTV days Flash me back to that neon craze, I miss my good old MTV days. Forever young in that retro phase, Long live my good old ... ... MTV days ... ... my good old ... ... MTV days! [Amazing Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] No swipe, no skip — just sit and wait, For the next premiere, it felt like fate. Countdown dreams on TRL, We knew those stories oh so well. Time machine me through that haze, I need my good old MTV days. [Chorus] My good old MTV days, Where the rhythm burned and the screen would blaze. Rewind the tape, let the music play I wanna go back to my MTV days Flash me back to that neon craze, I miss my good old MTV days. Forever young in that retro phase, Long live my good old ... ... MTV days ... ... my good old ... ... MTV days!
