The Kyng
[verse 1]
Do you remember when we were 19
We've just barely met, already laughing
Mocking silly jazzmen and promising
We'll be better
Do you remember the taste of the muffins ?
The air of the car in where we were playing ?
The fucked-up people ? We didn't even
Give a shit about teachers
I fucked girls and boys, you don't care about it
You've seen me crying, 'bout that fucking girl
From that year, I had more happy times
With you, than with her
[Chorus]
It's been ten years, you know
You've been successful
A beautiful grown-up man
And i'm a still teen fool
I know when things slip out of my hands
Could we just lie and pretend
We're 19 again ?
[verse 2]
Now, don't you think, that the life was easier
No fucking boss, no evil lovers
We've got in head that amazing song that said
"Today, it's gonna work"
I don't know who, I'm supposed to talk with
About Sonic Youth, about girls panties
It's been 5 years I'm playing with
A ghost... sometimes I'm lost
And we played shows even if we were sick
And we played alone, in "lavomatiques"
Whatever I keep playing music
Something is missing
[Chorus]
It's been ten years, you know
You've been successful
A beautiful grown-up man
And I'm still a teen fool
I know when things slip out of my hands
Could we just lie and pretend
We're 19 again ?
[ending]
It's been 10 years, just wow
That I've met a Kyng
Maybe, maybe, maybe, one day, who knows
We'll be back on stage
But now, let's celebrate that birthday
Can I lie and just pretend...
That I don't miss you, man
