I Was a Teenage Grandad

My flatmate told me,
Said that you'd rung while I was out
Celebrating being young
And I was thinking while I was drinking
I'd like to think I'm an adventurous chicken...

I never know when the night has ended
I'm more stupid than God intended!
Instead of listening to the don'ts
I just do
It's true! It's true! It's true...
I'm not through yet!

[CHORUS]
I wish I was teenage yeah!
Instead I am your grandad
And I wish I was teenage yeah!
Instead I am your grandad

I thought that when I reached 27
I'd be either in hell or heaven
Had a heart attack and went epileptic
Almost prophetic as it was pathetic
I looked grim
Shook the cold hand of panic
Said, "Have a nice death."
But I'm no Titanic
And now I'm riding like the Headless Horseman,
On the run! On the run! On the run, yeah!

[CHORUS]

Living like a teenage grandad
Looking rather sad
My way is to be way out there
Living like a teenage grandad
Looking rather sad
My way isn't your way out...way out!

I never know when the night has ended
Man I'm more stupid than God intended!
Now I'm riding like the Headless Horseman
On the run! On the run! On the run, yeah!

Living like a teenage grandad
Looking rather sad
My way is to be way out there
Living like a teenage grandad
Looking rather sad
My way isn't your way out...way out!
