Think about it: Do you really need all that modern technology?
lyrics
I’m low tech, I’m old school
Some say I’m nothing but an old fool
I like to keep things simple as a rule
I’m low tech, I’m old school
Each day I get a newspaper, it’s what I read
That’s news on paper, not some fancy little screen
It doesn’t have a keyboard or a little battery
But you can take it in the bathtub or anyplace you please
When I buy an album, I like to hold it in my hand
Look at all the pictures and read about the band
I’ve still got cassettes and vinyl but make no mistake
I never, ever even thought about buying an eight-track tape
I use my phone for calling people. Imagine that
It won’t play a movie or pull up a map
No information overload and that’s OK
’Cause if my car breaks down, I’ll just call Triple A
