Auteurs - Early Years lyrics

rate me

Early years<br />

Were a shroud man<br />

Only a grey cloud<br />

Shot in the dark<br />

Hanging out<br />

With your dad<br />

His plans for revenge<br />

In some hick-town<br />

Caravan park<br />

Never keep<br />

A good one down<br />

Early years<br />

Were a dreadnought<br />

Waiting to tread board<br />

And my work<br />

Down the pan<br />

Hanging round<br />

By the back door<br />

One foot in<br />

The stage door<br />

Some disaffected<br />

Fly-by man<br />

Got wired by a cable<br />

Got wild on a table<br />

Scared the shit out of me<br />

All for the free state<br />

The snow and<br />

The greasepaint<br />

I left the singing family
