Root - Young Man's Blues Blues lyrics

A young man ain't got nothin' in the world these days I said, a young man ain't got nothin' in the world these days Well, except for: a body that looks good in anything And a brain that thinks it knows everything But apart from that: a young man ain't got nothin' in the world these days Well, except for: no idea about mortality And no fear about gravity; And girls who are there for casual s** And parents who are there to pick up your HECS And debts you'll pay off before you're dead And more teeth than fillings in your head And no need to work off middle aged spread And more than one reason for your bed But apart from that: a young man ain't got nothin' in the world these days I said, a young man ain't got nothin' in the world these days Well, except for: being part of the cool demographic Getting up too late for peak hour traffic And joints for taking not aching And memory not disintigrating And spell check if you're illiterate And you get to take up not give up cigarettes And you're not really a prisoner of society And you've got enough hair to style it stupidly And you don't know how much you don't know And you get more erections than Bruno Grollo And you got the perfect excuse for being bad And you still haven't turned into your dad But, apart from that: a young man ain't got nothin' in the world these days
