The Prime Of Kenny Silvers (parts 1 & 2) Lyrics - Generation X

Part 1. 

Kenny Silvers The boy who disappeared, 

Kenny Silvers The boy who disappeared 

Kenny gets by on a fiddle almost every day 

Chasing his childlike dream in an English town 

Ambition like his street is paved in grey 

Nothing made much sense anyway 

Kenny Silvers The boy who disappeared, 

Kenny Silvers The boy who disappeared 

Kenny working the local teenage underground 

Searching his pent up emotions 

Getting nowhere fast 

His anger saved from days of hanging around 

Explodes in some dark battleground 

Kenny Silvers The boy who disappeared, 

Kenny Silvers The boy who disappeared 

Kenny may think he's a king 

But he wants a queen 

Looking for real romance had it 

With the backstreets 

Tired of playing every game in the town 

Waiting for the girl that he'd once seen 

Kenny Silvers The boy who disappeared, 

Kenny Silvers The boy who disappeared, 

Kenny Silvers The boy who disappeared, 

Kenny Silvers The boy who disappeared 

Part 2. 

Then one day he found her 

While out cruisin' the high street 

Knew this love at first sight 

As they ran for the first bus 

He was thinking of diamonds 

While she held his hand 

the rain didn't seem to matter 

As they reached their promised land 

Kenny Silvers, 

Kenny Silvers, 

Kenny Silvers, 

Kenny Silvers 

But his past would always find him 

And he'd have to move again 

Well he'd think may be just one more job 

Would help to ease the pain 

On the run in some cold room 

As shelter from the dark 

They swore some day together 

They'd rip this world apart 

Kenny Silvers, 

Kenny Silvers, 

Kenny Silvers, 

Kenny Silvers 

And though I never knew him 

I know how he feels 

And though I never knew him 

I know how he feels 

Kenny Silvers, 

Kenny Silvers, 

Kenny Silvers, 

Kenny Silvers
