when you're young

uncle chive sits in by the bar through the night

won't you serve me one more memory

oh

when we

we were young

in the sun there was ugly kate by the sea

with the belly full of little me

oh the song that she sung

when you're young

there's a world in a tiny town

where a girl chases rabbits round all day

we play always when you're young

i can see far away

heaven help the one percent

we're not going to pay our rent on time

i can see only grey

all the world looks rosy when you're young

johnny rass

he's a loaded gun full of song

let him kingdom come undone

oh it's fun when you're young

when you're young

all the world is lost in the sun

and the world can do no harm

it seems we dream when you're young

i can see far away

heaven help the one percent

we're not going to pay our rent on time

i can see shady grays

money in for cigarettes

hello money place your bets

i can see color days

swimming at the summer shy

tell the teacher i'm out of my time

i can see only grey

all the world looks rosy when you're young

son

we wish you well

good health and fun

when you're young

uncle chive

with his teeth in hand

said goodnight
