20" Lyrics - Travis

Sure it's a gas 

(We're) Stuck in an English class 

Can't even dream 

So it's hard to accept the role you're given 

When you're sittin' there staring at the ceiling 

Wishing you were so very far from here 

When you're 13 

What fors and whys 

If he's got it why can't I 

You're my queen 

And I dream about you when I'm in my bed 

And if all of these things are like you said 

Then I'd rather be in another scene 

When I'm 14 

Just not fair 

I'm not getting anywhere 

Oh hard as a stone 

They expect us to make it out alone 

And they scream at us when we're on the phone 

And they lecture us all about routine 

When you're 15 

Get out of here 

You're crowding my tender years 

Don't say you see 

Cos you'd forgotten what it's like to be 

And I'm sure that it's changed to some degree 

Christ's advice ain't never as it seemed 

When you're 16
