lyrics

When Yr Ten

When yr ten
When yr ten
When yr ten
When yr ten
When yr ten years old and your bright young soul
Has just been freed or de-mysteried
And you've learnt to read
The whole world's book
Cos that's how it looks
To the genius
It was me and us
It was way back then
When yr ten
When yr ten
When yr ten
When yr ten
But on days like these my capilliaries
Have all burst to bleed
On my hangdog face
Like time's on skates
And so is space
I can't stand up straight
Like I used to then
When yr ten
When yr ten
When yr ten
When yr ten
