paroles de chanson 1996 - The Wombats

I had no cares in the 1990's
I knew of no downfalls
Though war was breaking out all around me
My concerns were with prank calls

She kissed me on the cheek, she kissed me on the cheek
Right in front of the older kids
When our self belief, our self belief
Wasn't scarred by the modern itch

'Cause now it feels like

We kiss with one eye on our TV set
And the more I give, the less I get
Needing fairground rides just to spark her smile
There's little here to miss
Bring back 1996
Bring back 1996
So hard to beat those teenage kicks
Bring back 1996

We were cloning sheep in the 1990's
We were building telescopes
And sugar filled the whole of my body
As I urged it on to grow

I kissed her on the cheek, I kissed her on the cheek
Just to impress the older kids
But my self belief, my self belief
Wasn't lost in the modern glitch

'Cause now it feels like

We kiss with one eye on our TV set
And the more I give, the less I get
Needing fairground rides just to spark her smile
There's little here to miss
Bring back 1996
Bring back 1996

Stop talking, stop talking (ah-ah-ah-ah)
I need a lover, not a friend tonight
I'm leaving, I'm leaving (ah-ah-ah-ah)
I'm not cut out for the modern life

I'll never beat those teenage kicks
I'll never beat those teenage kicks
I'll never beat those teenage kicks
Bring back 1996
