Glory Days — текст песни (Pulp)

Come & play the tunes of glory -
raise your voice in celebration
of the days that we have wasted in the cafe in the station.
& learn the meaning of existence in fortnightly instalments.
Come share this golden age with me
in my single room apartment
& if it all amounts to nothing - it doesn`t matter, these are
still our glory days.

Oh my face is unappealing
and my thoughts are unoriginal.
I did experiments with substances
but all it did was make me ill
& I used to do the I Ching
but then I had to feed the meter.
Now I can`t see into the future
but at least I can use the heater.
Oh it doesn`t get much better than this `cos this is how we live
our glory days.

Oh & I could be a genius
if I just put my mind to it
& I, I could do anything
if only I could get `round to it.
Oh we were brought up on the Space-Race,
now they expect you to clean toilets.
When you have seen how big the world is how can you make do with this?
If you want me I`ll be sleeping in -
sleeping in throughout these glory days.

These glory days can take their toll,
so catch me now before I turn to gold. Yeah we`d love to hear your story
just as long as it tells us where we are -
that where we are is where we`re meant
to be.
Oh come on make it up yourself -
you don`t need anybody else.
& I promise I won`t sell these days to anybody else in the world but you.
No-one but you [x4]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
