Sign Of The Times Lyrics - Jamie T

Post no bills, ill with chills, the pills, the cigarettes 

No I won't kill, I will not defend a bloody rag 

And where did all the friendships go? 

Lost them all to suffragettes 

And where did all the venues go? 

Lost them all to businessmen 

We all know, we're a sign of the times 

But I wish I'd been a little more exceptional 

And I wish I'd been a little unconventional 

But I was not enough 

No I'm not enough 

No I'm not enough 

I was never enough 

No I'm not enough 

No I'm not enough 

No I'm not enough 

I was never enough 

"The next day everybody from miles around had heard about Sparky 

The kids back home no longer laughed at him 

In fact they all wanted to be his friend because he was so famous" 

"I can play anything, anything at all and with no music" 

"All right, I'm sitting on a piano stool 

And my hands are on the keys 

What do I do now?" 

Simon says, everyone wants to know what's coming next 

Feel like a kid, underwater tryna hold my breath 

And everyday's another war, another life I could have lived 

In every way I wanted more, wanted more than Laura did 

We still know, she's a sign of the times
