lirik lagu i was a pre-pubescent – jilted john

i was born in ’59
we were poor but we didn’t mind
father worked both night and day
to clothe and feed our family
mother worked as hard as he
she had to look after me
i was a pre*p*b*scent, and life was good

then in 1965
father was ill, and then he died
mother couldn’t cope; she ran off with a man
so we had to go and live with our gran
we didn’t get much, my sisters and me
but we were happy
i was a pre*p*b*scent, yes i was
when i was a little boy school was fun
you messed about and you didn’t get done
or if you did it was still good fun
just a ruler on your knuckles or the slipper on your bum
and i sat next to a girl called jane
we were in love and we felt no shame
i was a pre*p*b*scent, and i was proud

four happy years with jane passed by
and then we had to say goodbye
jane went to live in liverpool
and i started at the comprehensive school
and i saw kids with acne on their faces
girls with bulging chests, and boys with breaking voices
it was p*b*scence, and it was ugly

p*b*scence, adolescence; these were words i didn’t know
fornication, copulation, menstruation, contraception, m*st*rbation** oh no!

i was frightened but i tried to pretend
that my happiness would never end
so i started staying out late at night
we’d roam the streets, maybe look for a fight
i wore doc martens and dug t. rex;
girls were funny, so was s*x
i was a pre*p*b*scent, but not for long
one summer’s day in ’73
i looked in the mirror and it terrified me
for what i saw was quite out of place:
bumfluff and acne all over my face
i tried to speak, but when i spoke
all that came out was a croak!
my voice had broke…n!

i was a p*b*scent, and it was sad
i used to be a pre*p*b*scent, but now i’m not
