Pop Will Eat Itself - I Was A Teenage Grandad текст песни

My flatmate told me,
Said that you'd rung
while I was out Celebrating being young

And I was thinking while I was drinking,
I'd like to think I'm an adventurous chicken...
I never know when the night has ended,
I'm more stupid than God intended!
Instead of listening to the don'ts, I just do.
It's true! It's true! It's true...
I'm not through yet!

I wish I was teenage
Instead I am your grandad
And I wish I was teenage
Instead I am, I am your grandad

I thought when I reached 27
I'd be either in hell or heaven,
Had a heart attack and went epileptic,
Almost prophetic as it was pathetic.
I looked grim,
Shook the cold hand of panic,
Said, "Have a nice death."
But I'm no Titanic
And now I'm riding like the Headless Horseman,
On the run! On the run! On the run!
On the run, yeah!

I wish I was teenage
Instead I am your grandad
And I wish I was teenage
Instead I am your grandad!

Living like a teenage grandad,
Looking rather sad.
My way is to be way out there.

Living like a teenage grandad,
Looking rather sad.
My way isn't your way out...

I never know when the night has ended,
Man I'm more stupid than God intended!
And now I'm riding like the Headless Horseman,
On the run! On the run! On the run!
On the run, yeah!

I wish I was teenage
Instead I am your grandad
And I wish I was teenage
Instead I am, I am your grandad!

Living like a teenage grandad,
Looking rather sad.
My way is to be way out there.

Living like a teenage grandad,
Looking rather sad.
My way isn't your way out...
