To Be a Young Man - Nadine Shah

I was once a virtuous man

Now stealing’s all I’ve got

I was once a handsome brute

Had models had the lot

My entourage was huge

And everywhere we’d go

Silly ones would follow

Cause we were in the know

Oh to be a young man again

Oh to be a young man again

We never spoke of aspirations

Instead we made and worked and did

But there were hopes and dreams

That we locked up and hid

Now we’re stuck in nine to fives

A monotonous routine

And any hope we had

Seems distant and obscene

Oh to be a young man again

Oh to be a young man again

You don’t know what I would give

To be a young man

A young man again

Oh to be a young man again
