Umbrellahead Lyrics - Twenty One - Mystery Jets

They say if you leave a horse alone it dies 

Nestles into the hay and shuts it's eyes 

Well I've dreamt of being that horse a hundred times 

And I end up a pile of bones and a cloud of flies 

And when you're nine years old you don't care 

If your on your own or one of a pair 

And when you get salt in your eyes, sand in your hair 

Call for mum or daddy they'll be there 

Please don't turn me into a man 

Cos I don't want to see my skin fold 

Oh please wont you keep me as I am 

Oh people look so lonely when they're old, when they're old

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

When you come of age it's not the same 

No umbrella over your head when it rains 

And your friends would rather get high than play a game 

Oh it's such a shame the way they change 

And Emily's hung over, Bill feels rough 

Thinks his girlfriend might be up the duff... again 

She threw up twice last night on the bus 

And I never thought growing old could be so tough

Oh please don't turn me into a man 

Cos I don't want to see my skin fold 

Oh please wont you keep me as I am 

Oh people look so lonely when they're old, when they're old
