lyrics

Let’s go back in time before the bloom
Ninety seven felt just like a boom
Rock and roll was what we were waiting for
But that was not enough we wanted more
With three guitar chords I made my first song
(retroviseur)
Not really in tune but loads of patience
(retroviseur)
Then I met you guys and here come the band
(retroviseur)
Life was good, we were flying up the ground

I, look backward today I’m in the mood
I, just remember how these times were good
My, souvenirs are coming like a flood
What you gonna do, what you gonna do now?
What you gonna do now?

From stage to stage, from town to town
The band became famous, we had a bunch of fans
Our agent was a thief, but the show was great
The music was good, and the band did the trick

In nineteen ninety six we signed a record deal
The agent said “vous devec changer de style”
It would be better if you could sing in French
That’s the way it has to be if you want to be ‘trend’
I, look backward today I’m in the mood
I, just remember how these times were good
My, souvenirs are coming like a flood
What you gonna do, what you gonna do now?
What you gonna do now?

I, look backward today I’m in the mood
I, just remember how these times were good
My, souvenirs are coming like a flood
What you gonna do, what you gonna do now?
What you gonna do now?
