Testo When You're Young - The Jam

When You're Young

Life is time you spend alone when you’re young
Used to fall in love with everyone
Any guitar and any bass drum
Life is a drink, and you get drunk
When you’re young
Life is new and there’s things to be done
You can’t wait to be grown up Acceptance into the capital world
You pull out some weed and their bullets are warm
When you’re young
But you find out life isn’t like that
It’s so hard to comprehend
But you set up your dreams
To have them smashed in the end
But you don’t mind
You got time on your side
And they’re never gonna
make you stand in line
You’re just waiting for the right time
You’re feeling so great you can’t be stopped when you’re young
You swear you’re never ever gonna work for someone
No corporations for the new age sons
Tears of rage roll down your face
But still you says it’s fun
But you find out life isn’t like that
You try hard to understand
Well the world is your oyster
but your future’s a clam
It’s got you in its grip
Before you’re born
You’re stoned with a user that I can’t afford
They’ll let you be a king
But you’re really a pawn
You’re feeling so bright you can’t be stopped when you’re young
Used to fall in love with everyone
Any guitar and any bass drum
Country -- the lights are going out
In millions of homes and thousands of flats
Goin' out, goin' out, goin' out, goin' out
Goin' out, goin' out, goin' out, goin' out
