Down from the attic in your old things   My new girlfriend has a curious streak   Half lit in the hall, she's like you   Twenty years ago      Clothes from a case you'd thrown at me   Orange, yellow, red and chartreuse green   Way back in the day, I lost you   Don't tell me here we go again      Seventies girl, don't come any closer   There's gonna be trouble tonight   You're not staying over      Hey there, seventies girl   Never should have showed her   You wanna be older than you were      She was transcendental then   Her beautiful eyes through your rose specs   Way back, in the day, I loved you   Or something like it anyway      Seventies girl, you've been taken over   You never had a cradle to rock   Now you wanna go there      Hey there, seventies girl   Never should have told her   You wanna be older than you were      We fell apart just like that dress   Then taught ourselves unhappiness   I don't recall much, I confess   But wonder where she's gone      Seventies girl, don't come any closer   There's gonna be trouble tonight   You're not staying over      Hey there, seventies girl   Never should've showed her   You wanna be older than you were
