Lyrics

Seventies to Twenties

[Verse 1]
Bell-bottom baby
Platform shoes
Thought every record
Was headline news
Polaroid laughter
All Saturday long
Every little moment
Felt like a song

[Chorus]
One day you’re twenty in the seventies
Spinning the world on a dime
Then you blink, you’re seventy in the twenties
Still trying to dance in time
Time flies, honey, like a jazz line runs away
So laugh out loud
Sing your name out proud
Have fun today (oh, have fun today)

[Verse 2]
Candlelit kitchen
Radio on
You swore that summer
Would never be gone
Now it’s new gadgets
And old birthday cake
Same wicked giggle
In a softer face

[Chorus]
One day you’re twenty in the seventies
Chasing the dawn just for fun
Then you blink, you’re seventy in the twenties
Counting your joys one by one
Time flies, sugar, like a fast train out the bay
So love too much
Call the friends you trust
Have fun today (yeah, have fun today)

[Bridge]
All those wild plans
All those second chances
You’re still the kid
Behind these dancing glasses (hey!)
If the heart feels young
Then the year’s just a number anyway

[Chorus]
One day you’re twenty in the seventies
Dancing through smoke and perfume
Then you blink, you’re seventy in the twenties
Laughing in your living room
Time flies, darling, in its own sweet sideways way
So raise that glass
Let the moment last
Have fun today (have fun today)
Have fun today (mmm, have fun today)
