Younger Than Yesterday

Byrds Younger Than Yesterday Lyrics
1.So You Want To Be A Rock 'n' Roll Star

So you want to be a rock 'n' roll star?
Then listen now to what i say
Just get an electric guitar
Then take some time
And learn how to play
And with your hair swung right
And your pants too tight
It's gonna be all right
Then it's time to go downtown
Where the agent man won't let you down
Sell your soul to the company
Who are waiting there to sell plastic ware
And in a week or two
If you make the charts
The girls'll tear you apart

The price you paid for your riches and fame
Was it all a strange game?
You're a little insane
The money, the fame, the public acclaim
Don't forget what you are
You're a rock 'n' roll star!


2.Have You Seen Her Face

Have you seen her face?
With her eyes reflect
The colors in the sky
On one familiar place
To be swept into
Whenever she's close by
Makes me wonder why

Run by, don't turn back
Can't hide from the look in her eye

Must be the way she walks
A style made up to capture all ahe needs
No time to spend on this talk
If your luck runs dry
She might see you tonight
Everything inside (in sight???)

Run by, don't turn back
Can't hide from the look in her eye

Run by, don't turn back
Can't hide from the look in her eye

You'll find you're locked in her spell
All the sights and sounds
Your senses will be found
And only time will tell
How much love can be
To wait so patiently
Wait and see
Run by, don't turn back
Can't hide from the look in her eye


3.My Back Pages

Written:bob dylan

Crimson flames tied through my years
Rollin high and mighty trapped
Countless violent flaming roads
Using ideas as my map
'we'll meet on edges soon' said i
Proud 'neath heated brow
Ah but i was so much older then
I'm younger than that now

Half wracked prejudice leaped forth
'rip down all hate' i screamed
Lies that life is black and white
Spoke from my skull. i dreamed
Romantic flanks of musketeers
Foundationed deep, somehow
Ah but i was so much older then
I'm younger than that now

In a soldier's stance, i aimed my hand
At the mongrel dogs who teach
Fearing not i'd become my enemy
In the instant that i preach
Sisters fled by confusion boats
Mutiny from stern to bow
Ah but i was so much older then
I'm younger than that now

My guard stood hard when abstract threats
Too noble to neglect
Deceived me into thinking
I had something to protect
Good and bad i define these terms
Quite clear, no doubt, somehow
Ah but i was so much older then
I'm younger than that now


4.Everybody's Been Burned

Everybody's been burned before
Everybody knows the pain
Anyone in this place
Can tell you to your face
Why you shouldn't try to love someone

Everybody knows it never works
Everybody knows and me
I know that door that shuts
Just before you get to the dream
You see...

I know all too well
How to turn, how to run
How to hide behind
A bitter wall of blue
But you die inside
If you choose to hide
So i guess instead, i'll love you
