Taxpayer - When They Were Young Lyrics
It's too late, lock up the patronsStumbling down a crowded staircaseLook at that guy dressed to the ninesAlways failed today, it's painted on his facePast that face stands a young professionalMan with his girl propped up against a wallPlanning to make this the great nightAnd polish off a glass of red wineOh my God, is this how we spend it?We could expire, is life so defended?Are we too late? Are we too late?I wouldn't knowLonesome gaze extends from a pair ofWell-crafted eyes belonging to a girl thatNever looked back since she was burnedBy a lad who never fully maturedShe observes a tall slender girl with aMan on each arm, caught in a cornerWondering which guy should come homeOh, they both can't wait, oh, they can't waitOh my God, is this how we spend it?We could expire, is life so defended?Are we too late? Are we too late?I wouldn't know, I'm quite okayOh my God, is this how we spend it?We could expire, is life so defended?Are we too late? Are we too late?I wouldn't know, I'm quite okayI wait and watch as people segregateThemselves apart from allThe ones that gave them all bad complexWhen they were youngOh my God, is this how we spend it?We could expire, is life so defended?Are we too late? Are we too late?I wouldn't know, I'm quite okayOh my God, is this how we spend it?We could expire, is life so defended?Are we too late? Are we too late?I wouldn't know, I'm quite okayI wait and watch as people segregateThemselves apart from allThe ones that gave them all bad complexWhen they were youngI wait and watch as people segregateThemselves apart from allThe ones that gave them all bad complexWhen they were young
