Yearbook Lyrics – Machine Head
Most likely to get married, class of 1980
It’s there in black and white up on a shelf
Damn they look so happy
Wish mom had kept that jacket and dad had kept the Firebird he had to sell
And I guess they stayed together just because they wrote forever
On the inside of the cover by their names

On the inside of the cover by their names
They were in love you can read it
I guess I’ve just only seen it in a red ink heart around my father’s face
They’ve lived in the same house for almost 40 years now
But the last day they were on the same page

Ooo, too bad the pages only turn one way
Ooo, and it’s too damn hard to look at yesterday
And I guess they stayed together just because they wrote forever
On the inside of the cover by their names
They were in love you can read it
I guess I’ve just only seen it in a red ink heart around my father’s face
They’ve lived in the same house for almost 40 years now
But the last day they
