Lyrics The Inbetweenies - The Goodies

The Inbetweenies

When I was young, every song that we sung, went «Boom sha la la la la»
Now they’re the same, so lets sing 'em again, why shouldn’t I be a star?
But nobody wants us today (Ohhh!), just because we’re middle age
Too old (Too old) to be a teenager, Too young (Too young) to be a mother’s pet
Are we (Are you?) just the inbetweenies, that everyone tries to forget?
When I was seventeen, so they say, it’s obscene, to shake it about like we do
(Ooo ooo)
But don’t think 'coz we’re old, that we can’t rock 'n' roll, 'coz we’re gonna
sock it to you (Oh yeah!)
We can compete with the best, just as long as you give us a rest
Too old (Too old) to be a teenager, Too young (Too young) to be a mother’s pet
Are we (Are you?) just the inbetweenies, that everyone tries to forget?
Too old (Too old) to be a teenager, Too young (Too young) to be a mother’s pet
Are we (Are you?) just the inbetweenies, that everyone tries to forget?
It’s so hard to be thirty, you’re so easily hurt, when teenagers shout «Push off Mum!» No!
But you’ll never stop a … inbetweeniebopper, 'coz we know that our time will
come
You’re all getting older each day, and soon we’ll be hearing you say:
Too old (Too old) to be a teenager, Too young (Too young) to be a mother’s pet
Are we (Are you?) just the inbetweenies, that everyone tries to forget?
Too old (Too old) to be a teenager, Too young (Too young) to be a mother’s pet
Are we (Are you?) just the inbetweenies, that everyone tries to forget?
Too old (Too old) to be a teenager, Too young (Too young) to be a mother’s pet
Are we (Are you?) just the inbetweenies, that everyone tries to forget?
Too old (Too old) to be a teenager, Too young (Too young) to be a mother’s pet
Are we (Are you?) just the inbetweenies, that everyone tries to forget?
