[00:18.246]Always at the foot of the photograph–that's me there
[00:24.341]Snug as a thug in a mugshot pose a foul-mouthed rogue
[00:30.892]Owner of this corner and not much more
[00:34.716]Still these days I'm better placed to get my just rewards
[00:43.88]I'll pound out a tune and very soon
[00:47.483]I'll have too much to say and a dead stupid name
[00:51.572]Though I ought to be learning I feel like a veteran
[00:56.93]Of oh I like your poetry but I hate your poems
[01:00.869]Calendars crumble I'm knee deep in numbers
[01:04.664]I've turned 21I've twist I'm bust and wrong again
[01:15.387]Rubbing shoulders with the sheets till two
[01:20.218]Looking at my watch and I'm half-past caring
[01:24.250]In the lap of luxury it comes to mind
[01:28.194]Is this headboard hard am I a lap behind
[01:32.385]But to face doom in a sock-stenched room all by myself
[01:40.987]Is the kind of fate I never contemplate
[01:45.451]Lots of people would cry though none spring to mind
[01:49.369]Come through I
[01:50.273]Ought to be learning I feel like a veteran
[01:54.140]Of oh I like your poetry but I hate your poems
[01:58.730]Calendars crumble I'm knee deep in numbers
[02:02.890]I've turned 21I've twist I'm bust and wrong again
[02:07.750]Know what it's like
[02:10.62]To sigh at the sight of the first quarter of life
[02:14.934]Ever stopped to think and found out nothing was there
[02:29.391]They laugh to see such fun
[02:32.351]I'm playing blind man's bluff all by myself
[02:37.823]All by myself
[02:39.334]And they're chanting a line from a nursery rhyme
[02:43.790]Ba ba bleary eyes–have you any idea
[02:47.982]Years of learning I must be a veteran
[02:52.238]Of oh I like your poetry but I hate your poems
[02:56.320]And the calendar's cluttered with days that are numbered
[03:00.391]I've turned 21I've twist I'm bust and wrong again
[03:05.268]Ought to be learning
[03:07.179]Twist I'm bust and wrong again
[03:10.147]Feel like a veteran
[03:11.587]Twist I'm bust and wrong again
[03:14.131]Calendar's cluttered
[03:18.73]With days that are numbered
[03:21.959]And I know what it's like
[03:24.934]To sigh at the sight
[03:27.04]Of the first quarter of life
[03:31.131]And I know what it's like
