[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
I remember what it felt like at seventeen:
I was a cat, a snake, a lizard, a mouse...
Still got an interest in the limousine
And a spouse and a brat
Country house, London flat
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna head for the island when the summer's out
I'm gonna do all the stuff that I can
Drink like a fish in a waterspout -
I'm a fan of the flow
It began long ago
I'm a man who should know
It doesn't stop
[Break]
[Accapella]
[Break]
[Verse 3]
There's so much to remember
And so much to forget:
We're all in the possession of the future tense
But don't know it yet
[Verse 1]
