Noserings And Shoestrings

Ruffled hair a lose shoestring
Covered arms and a nosering
His 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

But he's self confessed and a little obsessed
He gets money from his parents to try to impress
I guess thats adolescence at its best.
He's never put to the test but still distressed
And he keeps a bottle inside his vest
I guess thats adolescence at its best.

He says 'live fast and die young, forget the past and move on, what done is done'
He says 'live fast and die young, forget the past and move on, you only live once'

woa-oh oh oh (x3)

Hangs about at the skateparks, with his lighter and his pack of cards and his going nowhere.
Maybe if life wasn't so hard, if he got off to a better start, he'd be somewhere.

But he's self confessed and a little obsessed
He gets money from his parents to try to impress
I guess thats adolescence at its best.
He's never put to the test but still distressed
And he keeps a bottle inside his vest
I guess thats adolescence at its best.

He says 'live fast and die young, forget the past and move on, what done is done'
He says 'live fast and die young, forget the past and move on, you only live once'

woa- oh oh oh (x4)

I'll keep calm and carry on, whilst he's drunk all night long.
He'll sit with his guitar and play another song then he'll give me a phone.
Another 5am call, sitting worried in my hall.
Will he come tonight before it gets light? I guess he might
I'll keep calm and carry on, whilst he's grunk all night long, but he'll be home by dawn.(x2)

He says 'live fast and die young, forget the past and move on, what done is done'
He says 'live fast and die young, forget the past and move on, you only live once'

woa - oh oh oh

What's done is done.
