Cultural Reboot

Going back to the beginning
Unravelling the weave
Re-dressing our biases
All that we believe
Tabula rasa
Fashion is so tired
Every move a cliché
Reboot is required
Just to get through the day

Going back to our roots now
So forgotten so long
Eschewing the magazines
Releasing all the songs
Hitting a re-start
Glamour is lacking
She’s just too old and spent
Cultural reboot needed
Nothing can relent
Just to get through the day

    Never thought of it as a cultural reboot required…but the older we get; perhaps the more we need of those.
