English Boys |
| When I was 17 |
| I saw a magazine |
| It had those English Boys |
| Who had long hair |
| When I was on my own |
| They moved into my town |
| And I just called them up |
| And they’d be there |
| In 1969 |
| I had a lousy time |
| I listened to the songs |
| Read letters sent from Nam |
| Now peace and love were gone |
| The tired soldiers home |
| Ideal society |
| Gunned down the 70s |
| Does it feel the same to you? |
| Why do you act the way you do? |
| Pack it up or pack it in |
| There’s no excuse |
| Could the hands of time reverse? |
| Would we wake or take the ride |
| And again speak with one voice? |
| We knew each other well |
| Although we never met |
| Messages passed to tell |
| Equal respect |
| Coincidence recurred |
| I had to laugh a lot |
| One week hung up superb |
| Said maybe not |
