In a nostalgic reflection on changing times, Good Charlotte's playful lyrics depict a surreal awakening where the world significantly differs from the early 2000s. The song captures a yearning for the past, highlighting contrasts between then and now, such as rappers singing, rockers DJ'ing, and the absence of guitars in modern music. The lyrics recount the vibrant memories of an era when MTV was at its peak, and California was the epicenter of iconic parties with legends like Eazy-E, Dre, and Snoop. The band humorously observes how punk rockers have aged into tame suburban roles, underscoring the dullness of today's reality compared to their wild youth. #Nostalgia #ChangingTimes #Throwback
40 Oz. Dream
Lyrics
Woke up this morning with the strangest feeling
I had a nightmare, but I wasn't dreaming
I ran outside to see, it's not 2003
Turned on the radio it's so confusing
Rappers were singing
And rockers DJ'ing
There's no guitars on the songs that they're playing
I called my shrink to see if I was healthy
I called my mom and she was taking selfies
Grew Up on MTV
When they had Eazy-E
In California, yeah
They still knew how to throw a party
When it was Gin & Juice
And we had Dre and Snoop
In California, yeah
They still knew how to throw a party
Oh, oh
Last night, I had a 40 ounce
Oh, oh, last night, I had a 40 ounce
Dream
Now all the punk rockers are over forty
They're coaching little league and reading stories
When did the neighborhood ever sound so good
Looked on the corner and there's no more junkies
More girls and more grunge and bottles and more fun
Needles and squatters pissed off at their fathers
I can't believe it man, it's all so boring
Went down to Gilman
Ya, the cops were snoring
Grew Up on MTV
When they had Eazy-E
In California, yeah
They still knew how to throw a party
When it was Gin & Juice
And we had Dre and Snoop
In California, yeah
They still knew how to throw a party
Oh, oh
Last night, I had a 40 ounce
Oh, oh, last night, I had a 40 ounce
Dream
Grew Up on MTV
When they had Eazy-E
In California, yeah
They still knew how to throw a party
When it was Gin & Juice
And we had Dre and Snoop
In California, yeah
They still knew how to throw a party
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea
We still know how to throw a party
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na
Yea, yea, yea, yea, yea, yea
We still know how to throw a party
Oh, oh
Last night, I had a 40 ounce
Oh, oh, last night, I had a 40 ounce
Oh, oh, last night, I had a 40 ounce
Oh, oh, last night, I had a 40 ounce
Dream
