Ruffled hair, a lose shoestring
Covered arms and a nose rings
He?s just misguided I think
He goes out till the lights up
He doesn?t care for the day mmm
He doesn?t know what he?s worth
He?s self confessed and a little obsessed
Gets money from his parents to try and impress
I guess that?s adolescence at it?s best
He?s never put to the test but still distressed
And he keeps a bottle inside his vest
I guess that?s adolescence at it?s best
He says ?live fast and die young,
Forget the past and move on,
what?s done is done?
He says ?live fast and die young,
Forget the past and move on,
you?re only young once?
Woa-oh, oh, oh
Woa-oh, oh, oh
Woa-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh oh oh
Hangs about at the skateparks,
with is lighter and his pack of cards
He knows he?s going nowhere
Maybe if life wasn?t so hard,
if he got off to a better start
He?d be somewhere
He?s self confessed and a little obsessed
Gets money from his parents to try and impress
I guess that?s adolescence at it?s best
He?s never put to the test but still distressed
And he keeps a bottle inside his vest
I guess that?s adolescence at it?s best
He says ?live fast and die young,
Forget the past and move on,
what?s done is done?
He says ?live fast and die young,
Forget the past and move on,
you?re only young once?
Woa-oh, oh, oh
Woa-oh, oh, oh
Woa-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh oh oh
I?ll keep calm and carry on whilst he?s drunk all night long
He?ll sit with guitar and play another song
Then he?ll give me a phone
Another five am call, sitting worried in my hall
Will he come home tonight before it gets light?
I guess he might
I?ll keep calm and carry on, whilst he?s drunk all night long,
?cause he?ll be home by dawn
I?ll keep calm and carry on, whilst he?s drunk all night long,
?cause he?ll be home by dawn
He says ?live fast and die young,
Forget the past and move on,
what?s done is done?
He says ?live fast and die young,
Forget the past and move on,
you?re only young once?
Woa-oh, oh, oh
Woa-oh, oh, oh
Woa-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh oh oh
What?s done is done
