Quickstep — текст песни (Adverts)

Quickstep (written 4/77)
I knew my youth couldn`t last forever
I knew some chords so I got the band together
Sick of sleeping and beating up my mother
Forget these luxuries, I`ve got myself another buzz
Now you don`t see me, now you do
Pretty s
oon you`re going to see what punks can do
I stole some tunes from the radio
I lost my nerve but it didn`t show
I found some friends with a little faith
Less money and no taste
Now you don`t see me, now you do
Pretty soon you`re going to see what pu
nks can do
But you`ve got to work at it, what a drag
You`ve got to work, work, work, work
You can`t lag behind, lag behind, lag behind
I want to get this gig over
And I don`t want to see it again
But I don`t want to go until it`s over
And I don`t w
ant to die in pain, die in pain
2-3-4! I knew my youth can`t last forever
I`ll sing the words until I can`t keep the band together no more
Oh! to do the quickstep on a Saturday night
And hunt like brave man with a flashlight
Now you don`t see me, no
w you do
Pretty soon you`re going to see what punks can do
