I saw you laughin' at pictures in magazines,
  starlings from way back when you were a kid
  and like everyone did you worshipped them till the end
  Then two albums later came short-haired invaders
  and Flannel kicked Leather's ass
  You cursed what you knew was once to be true
  and tried to light Metal with gas
  And the Poseurs are now laughing
  as the Circle of Fads spins again
  and now you dress like my old math teacher
  Starling - I remember Metal Kings
  Starling - Don't forget the Metal Kings
  Hey, were you guessin' that this history lesson
  would not have a chapter for me?
  Yes it's true, I'm not terribly cool
  but I don't have a plan to be
  All the new Poisons just have different toys
  and they all play their part perfectly
  Albeit cooler, my Rockathon Ruler measures a small victory
  Nothing's ever wrong that's real
  And fakebooks can't show you how to feel
  But it's over for me on the day my stomach's full
  JADED!
  And they'll say that we're not cool enough
  when fashion has left us behind
  And we'll just laugh and forget what year it is
