Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She's had to peel me off the pavement
Trying to insinuate sometimes, I'm in danger of going too far
Said would I like to go for tea and toast?
Get your hand off my thigh
In the car, she turned to me and said
[Chorus]
"You're not nineteen forever, pull yourselves together
I know it seems strange, but things, they change"
Older woman and a younger man
Both of them doing all they can
[Verse 2]
Trying to get your attention all night long
Asked you once, I asked you twice, asked you four times
If you'd like to dance to that song
Front crawled the crowd down the stairs
And then, I followed you out in the rain
Nowhere to be found, never mind
You'll probably never look that pretty again
[Chorus]
You're not nineteen forever, pull yourselves together
I know it seems strange, but things, they change
Older woman and a ever-so-slightly younger man
God bless the band, they're doing all they can
[Chorus]
You're not nineteen forever, pull yourselves together
I know it seems strange, but things, they change
Older woman and a ever-so-slightly younger man
God bless the band, they're doing all they can
[Outro]
You're not nineteen forever
You're not nineteen forever
You're not nineteen forever
It's not big, you're definitely not clever
