Seventeen and Deadly Songtext
von Black Box Recorder

In five years time
I′ll be taking on the world
You're in the presence of greatness
Don′t step in my light
I've got the stars in my sights
I'm just here to pass the time

Seventeen and deadly
One-track mind
Seventeen and deadly
Cruel to be kind
Seventeen and deadly
Exit sign
I′ll cross you out if you cross my line

In five years time
I′ll be a million miles from here
You'll still be saving for a ticket
Stuck inside the ring road
Theme park night club
Beer gut time bomb hard tech explode


Seventeen and deadly
Passing time
Seventeen and deadly
Cruel to be kind
Seventeen and deadly
Please don′t try
I'll cross you out if you cross my line
I′ll cross you out if you cross my line

Where are you now?
Why don't I guess?
Living in your hometown at the same address
Look cheap driver heap, deep in debt
Divorce and a mortgage tied around your neck

Seventeen and deadly
Exit sign
Seventeen and deadly
Cruel to be kind
Seventeen and deadly
Please don′t try
I'll cross you out if you cross my line
I'll cross you out if you cross my line


In five years time
You′ll remember my face
You′ll remember the time
You'll remember the place
You′ll regret what you thought
You'll regret what you tried
You never stood a chance
You′re too dumb to know why

Seventeen and deadly
One-track mind
Seventeen and deadly
Exit sign

Seventeen and deadly
You're too old
Seventeen and deadly
A dish served cold
Seventeen and deadly
You′re much too old
