Jamie T - Sign Of The Times

Post no bills, ill with chills
The pills, the cigarettes
No, I won't kill
I will not defend a bloody rag
And where did all the friendships go?
Lost them all to suffragettes
And where did all the venues go?
Lost them all to businessmen

And we all know
We're a sign of the times

But I wish I'd been a little more exceptional
And I wish I'd been a little unconventional
But I was not enough, no, I'm not enough
No, I'm not enough, I was never enough
No, I'm not enough, no, I'm not enough
No, I'm not enough, I was never enough

"But by the next day everybody from miles around had heard about Sparky and the kids back home no longer laughed at him. In fact, they all wanted to be his friend because he was so famous."
"I can play anything, anything at all and with no music. All right, I'm sitting on a piano stool, and my hands are on the keys. What do I do now?"

And Simon says
Everyone wants to know what's coming next
Feel like a kid underwater
Trying to hold my breath
And every day's another war
Another life I could have lived
In every way, I wanted more
I wanted more than Laura did

But we still know
She's a sign of the times

But I wish I'd been a little more exceptional
And I wish I'd been a little unconventional
But I was not enough, no, I'm not enough
No, I'm not enough, I was never enough
No, I'm not enough, no, I'm not enough
No, I'm not enough, I was never enough
