Words and music by bob seger, craig frost, tim mitchell
I saw them standing on a corner
Bathed in ordinary light
They turned away and started walkin
And faded off into the night
Some years ago they were in fashion
Tonight they couldnt get a seat
Theyve got themselves a brand new history
From revisionism street
Written on revisionism street
The years of sacrifice and struggle
The arc of stardoms natural course
The inevitable decline
The wolves waiting at the door
Lets dig up something really nasty
Lets get some clay around their feet
No ones memory is sacred round here
On revisionism street
Well never be in the arena
Hey, well never have to compete
Well never write a classic novel
And well never have to be discreet!
Alfred hitchcock, isaac newton
Elvis presley, captain bligh
Theyre heroic or pathetic
Depending on which book you buy
Charles dickens, jackie gleason
Burn em all, turn up the heat
If theres no truth, use innuendo
This is revisionism street
Lets find ourselves some old acquaintance
Lets see what they have to say
Some disgruntled ex-employee
Presto! payday!
A tree falls in the forest
A million copies go to print
Some parasitic little feeder
Sits back and makes a mint
Somewhere a babys softly sleeping
Lts innocence complete
Unaware theyre workin late tonight
On revisionism street
