I Should Have Listened to the Rumours

If I had a musical time machine
I'd travel back to my edge of seventeen
Then take all those childish jibes and jokes back
About how uncool it was to be a fan of Fleetwood Mac

Older and wiser I'd re-live my teenage kicks
Hypnotised by that siren sound: The voice Stevie Nicks
With Lindsey Buckingham, Christine and John McVie, Mick Fleetwood
Why couldn't these ears hear then that you were that good?

Go Your Own Way, Songbird, I Don't Want to Know, You Make Loving Fun, Dreams, The Chain
Oh Daddy, Gold Dust Woman, Second Hand News, Don't Stop
Never Going Back Again

I thought the Clash in '77 made an albatross of you
So when you broke up I didn't mourn the loss of you
But now, like you say, I go my own way
And, 36 years late, I finally bought Rumours...today

If I had a musical time machine
I'd travel back to my edge of seventeen
Then take all those childish jibes and jokes back
About how uncool it was to be a fan of Fleetwood Mac
