Kids sat smoking by the cinema doors
Too young to drink, Too old to stay indoors
Complaining about their mum and dads giving them chores
It?s a hard old fucking life
A man on the telly leaves a comical pause
Telling some jokes about mother in laws
Everybody laughs, Everybody applaudes
Everybody apart from his wife
Cause nothing ever changes
but everything will
Just a little older
A little less time to kill
You run your whole life
To be standing still
Girls taking pictures of themselves online
They stick ?em up on every social media site
To prove themselves they?ve had the time of their lives
It?s a sad old fucking world
Alpha males chase tails round beauty queens
Like Japanese around a karaoke machine
We've all got tattoos but we don?t know what they mean
It?s a sad old fucking life
Cause nothing ever changes
nothing ever will
We spend our whole life running
But we're standing still
Just a little older
A little less time to kill
We fly kites out
In electrical storms
We're burning all our fingers
Just to keep our hands warm
We've been dying
Since the day we were born
