pela cochlea: Once We Were Anarchists - Frank Turner

The times they aren’t a-changing
Yeah England’s still shit, and it’s still raining
And everybody’s jaded and tired and bored
And no one lifts a finger, because
It’s just not in our culture
Our culture is carrion
And we’re all vultures
And no one seems bothered by the state of play
It seems that the stench is with us to stay
So I had a go, I tried examining life
It wasn’t much worth living
I guess they’re right
And I’m tired of fighting a fight that’s not my fight
So is everybody else, we’re all on the same side.
Because I’m young enough to be all pissed off
But I’m old enough to be jaded
I’m at the age where I want things to change
But with age my hopes have faded
I’m young and bored of being young and bored
If I was old I could say I’ve seen it all before
In short; I’m tired
And in short; I’m probably fired
If the revolution doesn’t want me, I don’t give a shit.
