A New Fix For '76 - Gino Vannelli

And now that psychedelia’s gone when the hell ya gonna face reality boy

We can’t be that asinine to think that nineteen sixty nine was the way it

should be

There’s a new moon with an old shine

So it’s time to open your heart as wide as you see

Sing a new song of mobility

Get a new fix for seventy six

And now whether our hair’s short or long

The issue is not really if it’s right or wrong

But as long as it’s clean … right

I’ve gotta realize that our new found philosophies

Were only synthesized in the delusion of a flowerchild scene

There’s a new star in an old space

So it’s time you open your soul and set yourself free

Sing a new song of totality

Get a new fix for seventy six

So we thought we were cool and free

But then our heros blew their minds

With x and y’s and lsd oh what a sin

Friend we gotta comprehend and we gotta learn from the past

And not dwell in it again and again and again

Hold one hand with time

And open your mind naturally

Sing a new song of vitality

Get a new fix for seventy six
