Embarrassing Kid |
Embarrassing kid looks into the mirror |
And grins like an idiot at his own face |
For as long he lives he will not be delivered |
From the stuff that he did, from his teenage mistakes |
I can barely believe it |
How I went and let the old school down |
Yeah, whatever can I have been thinking of? |
Embarrassing kid, I squirm at the memory |
Try to bang down the lid on the can of worms |
It remains pretty strange and uncomfortable territory |
Where my secrets are hidden, however absurd |
I can hardly conceal it |
How my ashen face got drained of blood |
Yeah, everybody can have a damn good laugh |
Embarrassing kid, you don’t know the half of it |
But I’d stake a few quid you’ve got gaffes of your own |
Take a look at yourself and you might have to laugh a bit… |
But the teeth that you grit, well at least they’re your own |
And yes at the end of the day |
We get what we’ve given away |
You bet: our eternal embarrassment |
