I Was A Teenage Grandad Lyrics - The Looks Or The Lifestyle - Pop Will Eat Itself

My flatmate told me, 

Said that you'd rung while I was out 

Celebrating being young 

And I was thinking while I was drinking, 

I'd like to think I'm an adventurous chicken... 

I never know when the night has ended, 

I'm more stupid than God intended! 

Instead of listening to the don'ts, 

I just do. 

It's true! It's true! It's true... 

I'm not through yet! 

I wish I was teenage 

Instead I am your grandad 

I thought when I reached 27 

I'd be either in hell or heaven, 

Had a heart attack and went epileptic, 

Almost prophetic as it was pathetic. 

I looked grim, 

Shook the cold hand of panic, 

Said, "Have a nice death." 

But I'm no Titanic 

And now I'm riding like the Headless Horseman, 

On the run! On the run! On the run, yeah! 

I wish I was teenage, instead I am your grandad! 

Living like a teenage grandad, 

Looking rahter sad. 

My way is to be way out there. 

Living like a teenage grandad, 

Looking rather sa. 

My way isn't your way out... 

I never know when the night has ended, 

Man I'm more stupid than God intended! 

Now I'm htere, 

Living like a teenage grandad, 

Looking rather sad. 

My way isn't your way out...
