Lyrics:
Nineteen, you're only nineteen for god's sake, you don't need a boyfriend
Nineteen, you're only nineteen for god's sake, you don't need a boyfriend
Look what he's made you do to your arm again
He said he'd come round but he's gone out with his friend
And i know how it feels to be your age and feel the world is caving in
Another drama by the kitchen sink tonight
You said you'd cut yourself whilst washing up the knives
Another week off school won't do you any good
And i know how it feels to be your age
Nineteen, you're only nineteen for god's sake, you don't need a boyfriend
Nineteen, you're only nineteen for god's sake, you don't need a boyfriend
Come out with me and find out what you really want
Come out to me, you only have to do it onc
And i know how it feels to be your age, you only have to do it
once and never again
Another drama by the kitchen sink tonight
You said you'd cut yourself whilst washing up the knives
Another week off school won't do you any good
And i know how it feels to be your age
You know i'm not so young
I spend an hour getting ready every day
And still i end up looking more or less the same
But i could show you a thing or two...
I could show you the ropes, yes i could show you the ropes
And i will change my sheets for you, cos i know how it feels
I know how it feels to be your age
I know how it feels to be your age
Oh, how i'd love to feel a girl your age
Once and never again
