[Intro]
[Verse 1]
As the supermarket pipes out The Animals
He finds himself singing along>
He's gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing he ever does wrong
If it's the last thing he ever does wrong
For forty-odd years, he's been singing a tune
Contemplating never a linel
And as passport gathers just a little more dust
Spontaneity is losing its shine
Spontaneity is losing its shine
[Chorus]
"And the kids these days think they're holding all the answers
No-one even seems to know their place anymore"
He says, staring out over a bay of missed chances
And looking at a knot in the wood on the floor
Looking at a knot in the wood on the floor
[Verse 2]
As the local boy racer comes out the base
He finds himself shaking a fist
Just like they did to him back when
He did the Jitterbug, the Hop, or the Twist
He did the Jitterbug, the Hop, or the Twist
[Verse 1]
As the supermarket pipes out The Animals
He finds himself singing along>
He's gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing he ever does wrong
If it's the last thing he ever does wrong
For forty-odd years, he's been singing a tune
Contemplating never a linel
And as passport gathers just a little more dust
Spontaneity is losing its shine
Spontaneity is losing its shine
[Chorus]
"And the kids these days think they're holding all the answers
No-one even seems to know their place anymore"
He says, staring out over a bay of missed chances
And looking at a knot in the wood on the floor
Looking at a knot in the wood on the floor
[Verse 2]
As the local boy racer comes out the base
He finds himself shaking a fist
Just like they did to him back when
He did the Jitterbug, the Hop, or the Twist
He did the Jitterbug, the Hop, or the Twist
