Being Boring |
I came across a cache of old photos |
And invitations to teenage parties |
«Dress in white» one said, with quotations |
From someone’s wife, a famous writer |
In the nineteen-twenties |
When you’re young you find inspiration |
In anyone who’s ever gone |
And opened up a closing door |
She said, «We were never feeling bored |
'Cause we were never being boring |
We had too much time to find for ourselves |
And we were never being boring |
We dressed up and fought, then thought: «Make amends» |
And we were never holding back or worried that |
Time would come to an end" |
When I went I left from the station |
With a haversack and some trepidation |
Someone said, «If you’re not careful |
You’ll have nothing left and nothing to care for |
In the nineteen-seventies» |
But I sat back and looking forward |
My shoes were high and I had scored |
I’d bolted through a closing door |
I would never find myself feeling bored |
'Cause we were never being boring |
We had too much time to find for ourselves |
And we were never being boring |
We dressed up and fought, then thought: «Make amends» |
And we were never holding back or worried that |
Time would come to an end |
We were always hoping that, looking back |
You could always rely on a friend |
Now I sit with different faces |
In rented rooms and foreign places |
All the people I was kissing |
Some are here and some are missing |
In the nineteen-nineties |
I never dreamt that I would get to be |
The creature that I always meant to be |
But I thought in spite of dreams |
You’d be sitting somewhere here with me |
'Cause we were never being boring |
We had too much time to find for ourselves |
And we were never being boring |
We dressed up and fought, then thought: «Make amends» |
And we were never holding back or worried that |
Time would come to an end |
We were always hoping that, looking back |
You could always rely on a friend |
We were never being boring |
We were never being bored |
We were never being boring |
We were never being bored |
