Seventeen

wake up demonstrations
said silence is the wrong word
i'm gonna keep the names
that i use for myself to myself
a summer sun is shining
what will it be tomorrow?
i want to watch the world
from the edge of my seat
when it burns
seventeen can't be wrong
seventeen cannot see
i can't believe
it's been so long
seventeen follow me
i want to walk the outside
they're burning down the houses
i'm gonna keep my eyes
on the ground
when i walk where i walk
i can't believe
it's been so long
can't believe i can't see
seventeen can't be wrong
seventeen fall on me
never stop never mind
can't get good times
summer day sunshine
feels like anodyne
phone jams gridlock
standing at the bus stop
ten'o clock tick-tock
look at what the world's got
please her please me
gonna make a big scene
here comes faith comes
banging on a tin drum
don't try you can't fail
can't win you can't play
ten'o clock tick-tock
look at what the world's got
