Young, Gifted & Skint Lyrics - New Model Army

Young, gifted and skint - that's where it in't 

Look how easily it happened, look how easily I fell 

Now I'm up to here in debt, there's a noose around my neck 

There's a price upon my head 

My past was all in borrowed time, stupid, stupid borrowed time 

Now that the deed is done I'm waiting for the axe to fall 

Fantasies grow in my brain - run away and start again 

Disappear and change my name 

Money makes the world go round, fear makes it turn much faster 

Can't pay the rent-man a single thing, don't let the man from the Gas Board in 

Maybe this is all a dream, maybe I'll wake up again 

Maybe this could all be clean again . . .
