I Wish I Was Punk Rocker

Transposer:

[Refrain :] Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair In 77 and 69 revolution was in the air I was born too late to a world that doesn't care Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair When the head of state didn't play guitar, Not everybody drove a car, When music really mattered and radio was king, When accountants didn't have control And the media couldn't buy your soul And computers were still scary and we didn't know everything [Refrain] When popstars still remained a myth And ignorance could still be bliss And when God saved the Queen she turned a whiter shade of pale When my mom and dad were in their teen and anarchy was still a dream and the only way to stay in touch was a letter in the mail [Refrain] When record shops were on top and vinyl was all that they stocked and the super-info highway was still drifting out in space kids were wearing hand me downs, and playing games meant kick arounds and footballers still had long hair and dirt across their face [Refrain] I was born too late to a world that doesn't care Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

La chanson évoque un désir de retourner à une époque passée où la musique avait une véritable importance et où les valeurs étaient différentes. L’artiste regrette un monde plus simple, sans les pressions modernes et où la créativité était reine. Il fait référence à des moments clés de l’histoire, comme les années de révolte et de liberté, et décrit un sentiment de nostalgie pour une période où la communication était plus authentique et moins influencée par les médias. Dans ce contexte, l’artiste mentionne des éléments de la culture populaire des années 60 et 70, comme les disques vinyles, les lettres envoyées par la poste et l’esprit de rébellion qui était omniprésent. Ce retour en arrière souligne un malaise face à une société actuelle où la superficialité et la technologie dominent.
