Wish I Knew You in the 90's Songtext
von The Cribs

I saw you in a video
But it′s alright, cos now I know you
My only hope back then was living in fright
But if you saw me all those years ago
You'd probably laugh, and I wouldn′t blame you
It's not like I was ever going anywhere, right?

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah now I just don't care
Cos it all went past me
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah I remember...

Running outside, cos you′re panicking
In the silent, early evening
Scream her name but, she don′t hear ya
You and your hopes lost in suburbia
Find her photos, pick a favorite
Obsess over it, 'til we make it
Have a freak out, throw a whitey
Wish I knew you in the 90′s


I only have old videos
But it's alright, cos now I know you
Was your hair curly back then
Or am I just remembering something kinda wrong...

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah now I just don′t care
Cos it all went past me
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah wish we could go back there
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah now I just don't care
Cos it all went past me
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah I remember

Running outside, cos you′re panicking
In the silent, early evening
Scream her name but, she don't hear ya
You and your hopes lost in suburbia
Find her photos, pick a favorite
Obsess over it, 'til we make it
Have a freak out, throw a whitey
Wish I knew you in the 90′s
Have a freak out, throw a whitey
Wish I knew you in the 90′s
