girl of my age

Singer:kaiser chiefs

you were the one in the back

in the mack

i cracked you a smile and you cracked us one back

what are you gonna say

are you turning away

i see you here everyday

so maybe we could be friends

you were the one with the holes in your shoes

if this isn't over it's over to yous

i did all that i can

now it's out of my hands

do you have any plans

for this evening?

cause i've it happen

on the television

but it doesn't happen

least not to you and me

i was looking forward to a night on the town

with a girl of my age it was nice to be round

i was looking forward to a night on the town

with a girl of my age it was nice to be round

but it didn't happen like that

cause she never called me back

it doesn't happen like that

and they never tell you that

i was the one in the back

in the mack

sat by the window you looked at me back

you've got nothing to say

so you bumped it away

i see you here everyday

so maybe we should be friends

i was the one with the map of the world

the pages are faded and the edges are curled

take it out of the draw

pin it up to the door

i've got the itch to explore

i'll see you later

bye

i've seen it happen

on the television

but it doesn't happen

to the likes of you and me

i was looking forward to a night on the town

with a girl of my age it was nice to be round

i was looking forward to a night on the town

with a girl of my age it was nice to be round

but it didn't happen like that

cause she never phoned me back

it doesn't happen like that

and they never tell you that

but it didn't happen like that

cause she never phoned me back

i was looking forward to a night on the town

with a girl of my age it was nice to be round

i was looking forward to a night on the town

with a girl of my age it was nice to be round
