That reminds me of the Chicago lyric from "25 or 6 to 4"

Does anybody really care?

If you're writing a story that takes place in 1966, one would think
so.

Yeah, you're right.
I was associating it with a song about time.
The songs are sequential in my album.
Tracks 2 and 3 of "The Very Best of Chicago: Only the Beginning"
