[chorus:]
|
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
|
In ´77 and ´69 revolution was in the air
|
I was born too late into a world that doesn´t care
|
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
|
|
When the head of state didn´t play guitar
|
Not everybody drove a car
|
When music really mattered and when radio was king
|
When accountants didn´t have control
|
And the media couldn´t buy your soul
|
And computers were still scary and we didn´t know everything
|
|
[chorus]
|
|
When pop stars still remained a myth
|
And ignorance could still be bliss
|
And when God saved the Queen she turned a whiter shade of pale
|
My mom and dad were in their teens
|
And anarchy was still a dream
|
And the only way to stay in touch was a letter in the mail
|
|
[chorus]
|
|
When record shops were still on top
|
And vinyl was all that they stocked
|
And the super info highway was still drifting out in space
|
Kids were wearing hand me downs
|
And playing games meant kick arounds
|
And footballers still had long hair and dirt across their face
|
|
[chorus]
|
|
I was born too late into a world that doesn´t care
|
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
|
