[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 didna¢æ¢ât 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
|
When 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 around
|
And footballers still had long hair and dirt across their face
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
I was born too late to a world that doesn't care
|
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
|
