Blur - Young and Lovely lyrics

Friday's child is planning to go
Out for the first time
Says, "Don't worry, Mum
I won't be out that late"
Can't be playing those passive
Games right now
They're out of date you're awfully sweet
Haven't got the time, growing up so fast
Got better things to do

You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Oh oh oh oh, la la la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Oh oh oh oh, la la la

Kicking around in the centre of the town
Looking in shop windows
Those mannequins look far too real at night
Friday's child doesn't know if it's
Awake or if it's dreaming
Says, "Don't worry, Dad
I'll do my bit, I'll raise the flag
I'll be just like you"

You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Oh oh oh oh, la la la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Oh oh oh oh, la la la

"Don't worry, Mum, I'm not that dumb
I'll be just like you"

You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Oh oh oh oh, la la la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Oh oh oh oh, la la la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Oh oh oh oh, la la la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Oh oh oh oh, la la la

We all know why why you do it
La la la la, la la la we all know why
Why you do it la la la la, la la la
We all know why why you do it
La la la la, la la la
