Not Nineteen Forever - Courteeners



she's had to peel me off the pavement
trying to insinuate sometimes im in danger of going too far
said would i like to go for tea and toast?
get your hand off my thigh
in the car she turned to me and said

youre not nineteen forever, pull yourselves together
i know it seems strange but things they change
older woman and a younger man
both of them doing all they can

trying to get your attention all night long
asked you once, i asked you twice, asked you four times
if you'd like to dance to that song from (?)
down the stairs and then i followed you out in the rain
nowhere to be found, never mind
youll probably never look that pretty again

youre not nineteen forever pull yourselves together
i know it seems strange but things they change
older woman and ever so slightly younger man
god bless the band, theyre doing all they can

youre not nineteen forever pull yourselves together
i know it seems strange but things they change
older woman and ever so slightly younger man
god bless the band, theyre doing all they can

youre not nineteen forever
youre not nineteen forever
youre not nineteen forever
its not me, youre definately not clever
