Theme Interpretation: this is an old vintage-style rap song but also with a 56k modem sound in it so yeah

lyrics

wake up, read the paper
you know it's front page news

rise, shine, and bakin'
you see this now?
we're bringin' it old school

this old reality shakin'
with these vintage vibes

thrift shopping for beats
and keeping the sound alive

feels like I sampled this flute
from dry dry docks
but we're saving kitties with rhythms
and our positive thoughts
and all that positivity
carries through the songs
even when it goes wrong
it isn't too long
but here's to hoping we all
make some great music today
but even if we don't
the kitties will still get paid
and we'll learn some new stuff
and try out some new genres
but i've been rapping too long
so here's a solo, ok?

i'm back
and it's glitch - itching
feeling a way
remember when we downloaded songs
over 56k?
searching for files
like pieces of gold
through limewire and napster -
oh god i'm really old
but now we have spotify
and bandcamp and soundcloud
to listen to what we want
without being stuck in a download
without spending three hours
waiting for dad to stop using the phone line,
what the hell are you doing
with all that time?
I'm waiting here
and I need to download
the latest beastie boys cd
and you're making it slow

thank you
