Pop Will Eat Itself - I Was a Teenage Grandad lyrics

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

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, yeah!

I wish I was teenage, instead I am your grandad!

Living like a teenage grandad,

Looking rahter sad.

My way is to be way out there.

Living like a teenage grandad,

Looking rather sa.

My way isn't your way out...

I never know when the night has ended,

Man I'm more stupid than God intended!

Now I'm htere,

Living like a teenage grandad,

Looking rather sad.

My way isn't your way out...
