[XTC - The World Is Full of Angry Young Men lyrics]
Gone are the days when hate filled my heart
I feel now I am a happy man
I laugh now at values that I had
All through my youth
I was shouting and no one would hear
Blind to the ways
Of the people who now I hold dear
It's loud and clear
The world is full of angry young men
Chip on the shoulder an ideal in their head
The world is full of angry young men
Who think life owes them something
But, you only get out what goes in
There was a time when I fought the worldm
I see now it was just an actors stage
I see clear the colours through the haze
As time goes on
Your opinion will change like the weather
Things that you said now seem small
They just don't seem to matter
I learned for the better
The world is full of angry young men
Chip on the shoulder
And an ideal in their head
The world is full of angry young men
Who think life owes them something
But, you only get out what goes in
There was a time I was lost in the dark
I ran a race I didn't know where to start
Now I've changed my ways seeing better days
I'm turning my world upside down
The world is full of angry young men
Chip on the shoulder
And an ideal in their head
The world is full of angry young men
Who think life owes them something
But, you only get out what goes in
Angry young men
What you put in is what you get out
I feel now I am a happy man
I laugh now at values that I had
All through my youth
I was shouting and no one would hear
Blind to the ways
Of the people who now I hold dear
It's loud and clear
The world is full of angry young men
Chip on the shoulder an ideal in their head
The world is full of angry young men
Who think life owes them something
But, you only get out what goes in
There was a time when I fought the worldm
I see now it was just an actors stage
I see clear the colours through the haze
As time goes on
Your opinion will change like the weather
Things that you said now seem small
They just don't seem to matter
I learned for the better
The world is full of angry young men
Chip on the shoulder
And an ideal in their head
The world is full of angry young men
Who think life owes them something
But, you only get out what goes in
There was a time I was lost in the dark
I ran a race I didn't know where to start
Now I've changed my ways seeing better days
I'm turning my world upside down
The world is full of angry young men
Chip on the shoulder
And an ideal in their head
The world is full of angry young men
Who think life owes them something
But, you only get out what goes in
Angry young men
What you put in is what you get out
