These Days Songtext
von The Undercover Hippy

Well my childhood was quite amazing
I grew up with my head in a bass bin
Messy weekends spent all night ravin
Never had a penny but we knew all the ways in
Living in the moment like it would last forever
And I never wanna live in the past but
Baby these days I can never be arsed
I′m living in the moment sitting here on my arse yeah

You all know what I mean when I say
I don't get out a lot
I don′t get out a lot these days
You all know what I mean when I say
I don't get out a lot
I don't get out a lot these days


My black beard′s getting peppered in white
My knees are getting creaky and I′m thinking I might
Just ease into the sofa get the fire alight
Watch a bit of telly and then call it a night, well I'm
Not saying that my partying days are done
I still occasionally mash up the rave it′s fun
To get messy for a couple of days but
I'm paying for it later in a million ways yeah

You all know what I mean when I say
I don′t get out a lot
I don't get out a lot these days
You all know what I mean when I say
I don′t get out a lot
I don't get out a lot these days

And I don't need no reason
To stay in on my own
I′m tired and it′s freezing
Out beyond my door
So baby don't you tell me
It′s because I'm getting old
You really just don′t know

*Phone rings *


Hello?
Jim mate, what you saying?
Oh yeah, what kind of party?
Annnd, how many?
What, and they're all naked?
What flavour jam is it?
Ahh mate I′m. yeah I'm tempted but I'm really comfy
I′m just gonna stay in I think

Oh what the hell am I saying?
I mean yeah my hair has got grey in
That doesn′t mean that every day I gotta stay in
Cos inside I'm still just a kid who likes playing
So get Jim
Back on the phone I said I′m in
Call a taxi I'll be ready in ten yeah
Pass me that tequila let me hit it again
Cos you′re only as young as you dare to pretend yes

You all know what I mean when I say
I don't get out a lot
I don′t get out a lot these days
You all know what I mean when I say
I don't get out a lot
I don't get out a lot these days

I don′t don′t get out a lot these days
I don't don′t get out a lot these days
I don't don′t get out a lot these days
No I don't don′t don't get out a lot
