Lyrics I Wish I Was a Punk Rocker (Reborn) - Sandi Thom

I Wish I Was a Punk Rocker (Reborn)

I wish I was a punk rocker
With flowers in my hair
In 77 and 69
Revolution was in the air
I was born too late
Into a world that doesn’t care
So I still wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
When the head of the states tweets every hour
Corrupt and high and drunk on power
Justice doesn’t matter
And prejudice is king
When border walls of solid gold
Won’t keep our souls out in the cold
It really shouldn’t matter to which God we sing
I wish I was a punk rocker
With flowers in my hair
In 77 and 69
Revolution was in the air
I was born too late
Into a world that doesn’t care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
When music played under a kiss
Prince and Bowie will be missed
George Michael got us on our feet
Gay or straight or bi
But when were over looking back
Tomorrows under fresh attack
By those who sing the same old song
And fly the flag so high
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
In 77 and 69
Revolution was in the air
I was born too late
Into a world that doesn’t care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
When every nations on its own
When brexits born to stand alone
And the fires of revolution
Will fade into the dark
But if every nation becomes one
And all the hatred comes undone
Imagine like John Lennon
That the world beats with one heart
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
In 77 and 69
Revolution was in the air
I was born too late
Into a world that doesn’t care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
I was born too late
Into a world that doesn’t care
So I wish still I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
