lirik lagu the kids these days – paul heaton
[intro]
[verse 1]
as the supermarket pipes out the animals
he finds himself singing along>
he’s gotta get out of this place
if it’s the last thing he ever does wrong
if it’s the last thing he ever does wrong
for forty*odd years, he’s been singing a tune
contemplating never a linel
and as passport gathers just a little more dust
spontaneity is losing its shine
spontaneity is losing its shine
[chorus]
“and the kids these days think they’re holding all the answers
no*one even seems to know their place anymore”
he says, staring out over a bay of missed chances
and looking at a knot in the wood on the floor
looking at a knot in the wood on the floor
[verse 2]
as the local boy racer comes out the base
he finds himself shaking a fist
just like they did to him back when
he did the jitterbug, the hop, or the twist
he did the jitterbug, the hop, or the twist
for so many years, he nurtured that grief
like rock ‘n’ roll was here to stay
elvis lives on, the king ain’t dead
but he’s twisted that knife away
yes, he’s twisted that knife away
[chorus]
“and the kids these days think they’re holding all the answers
no*one even seems to know their place anymore”
he says, staring out over a bay of missed chances
and looking at a knot in the wood on the floor
looking at a knot in the wood on the floor
[instrumental]
[bridge]
that baby bird has flown from nest
those ships have sailed, those ships have sailed from dover
that song has sang on wilder days
that age of chance, that age of chance is over
and that sad little smile to end
knowing there’s no*one around
followed by sadder to ground
followed by sadder to ground (to ground, to ground)
[outro]
that baby bird has flown from nest
those ships have sailed, those ships have sailed from dover
