WHEN YOU'RE YOUNG Lyrics
Artist(Band):The Jam
Review The Song (2)Print the Lyrics
Life is timeless, days are long when you're young
You used to fall in love with everyone
Any guitar and any bass drum
Life is a drink and you get drunk when you're young
Life is new and there's things to be done
You can't wait to be grown up
Acceptance into the capital world
You pull on some weed and you pull on someone when you're young

But you find out life isn't like that
It's so hard to comprehend
Why you set up your dreams to have them smashed in the end

But you don't mind you've got time on your side
And they're never gonna make you stand in line
You're just waiting for the right time

You're fearless and brave - you can't be stopped when you're young
You swear you're never ever gonna work for someone
No corporations for the new age sons
Tears of rage run down your face
But still you say "it's love"

And you find out life isn't like that
It's so hard to understand
Why the world is your oyster but your future's a clam

It's got you in its grip before you're born
It's done with the use of a dice and a board
They let you think you're king but you're really a pawn

You're fearless and brave - you can't be stopped when you're young
You used to fall in love with everyone
Any guitar and any bass drum

Review about WHEN YOU'RE YOUNG
It doesn't get much better than this! | Reviewer: Mark Young | 10/17/2007
    Sublime and the only track I can think of, in the 78-83 period that gives The Undertones "Teenage Kicks" a run for it it's money.

    The drums and guitar chords are so lean and tight, (no pretentious reverb), and a real shock to the system.

    Sit up and listen, better than that stand up and dance!

    Life affirming, joyous, high energy!


    when youre young (the jam) | Reviewer: dave | 3/23/2005

    Quite possibly weller's best take on the dawning of a new era of Britains' youth, with a great driving bass provided by Foxton and fantasticly poetic lyrics giving you a great feel for the boy who wants to remain.In a nutshell this song tells you in 3 min 12 sec what it took quadrophenia 114 minutes.
    Top class if you haven't got it go buy it.
