0:04Well I remember when I was young
0:07The world had just begun and I was happy
0:13I used to wonder about the earth
0:15And how it moved around the sun so snappy
0:21Imagination goin' wild makes a very backward child
0:25So they told me
0:29So back at school I'd sit around
0:32Just waitin' for the sound so I could go home
0:39Sometimes I think about it it happens every day
0:47I should think of the present cause the present now
0:54Well I remember when I was young how one
0:57And thripence got ya to the movies
1:03To look tough we'd lite a smoke
1:05And very nearly choke but we had a real good time
1:11Growin' older meant you get to fly a saber jet and fight a few wars
1:19So I'd just sit there all day and let my mind decay something awful
1:29Sometimes I think about it it happens every day
1:37I should think of the present cause the present now
1:43The present now baby
2:09Well I remember when I was young
2:12I had a secret love who never knew it
2:18Yes I'd do tricks upon my bike
2:21That never turned out right I allways blew it
2:26And the day we had to part
2:29I had a broken heart but couldn't let on
2:34So I just spent my holidays just thinkin' of the ways I must be goin' wrong
2:44Sometimes I think about it it happens every day
2:52I should think of the present cause the present now
3:00Well I remember when I was young
3:02And the beatles turned me on I really blew my mind
3:08And we'd carry jack and pam we'd go
3:11And watch a band and have a real good time
3:16Anf then I heard the blackmans blues
3:19They really blew a fuse inside my head
3:25So with some friends we made a stand
3:27And formed our first blues band it was a real good thing
3:34Sometimes I think about it it happens every single day
3:42I should think of the present cause the present now
3:49The present now baby
3:52I remember when I was young
4:03Oh baby
4:05I surely do
4:10Yes I do yes I do
4:15Yes I do
4:18Oh baby
Well I remember when I was young The world had just begun and I was happy I used to wonder about the earth And how it moved around the sun so snappy Imagination goin' wild makes a very backward child So they told me So back at school I'd sit around Just waitin' for the sound so I could go home Sometimes I think about it it happens every day I should think of the present cause the present now Well I remember when I was young how one And thripence got ya to the movies To look tough we'd lite a smoke And very nearly choke but we had a real good time Growin' older meant you get to fly a saber jet and fight a few wars So I'd just sit there all day and let my mind decay something awful Sometimes I think about it it happens every day I should think of the present cause the present now The present now baby Well I remember when I was young I had a secret love who never knew it Yes I'd do tricks upon my bike That never turned out right I allways blew it And the day we had to part I had a broken heart but couldn't let on So I just spent my holidays just thinkin' of the ways I must be goin' wrong Sometimes I think about it it happens every day I should think of the present cause the present now Well I remember when I was young And the beatles turned me on I really blew my mind And we'd carry jack and pam we'd go And watch a band and have a real good time Anf then I heard the blackmans blues They really blew a fuse inside my head So with some friends we made a stand And formed our first blues band it was a real good thing Sometimes I think about it it happens every single day I should think of the present cause the present now The present now baby I remember when I was young Oh baby I surely do Yes I do yes I do Yes I do Oh baby
