Lyrics : Being Boring [Live at Glastonbury Festival, Worthy Farm, Pilton, UK - 2010/06/26]

I came across a cache of old photos
And invitations to teenage parties
"Dress in white" one said, with quotations
From someone's wife, a famous writer
In the nineteen-twenties

When you're young you find inspiration
In anyone who's ever gone
And opened up a closing door
She said, "We were never feeling bored

'Cause we were never being boring
We had too much time to find for ourselves
And we were never being boring
We dressed up and fought, then thought: "Make amends"
And we were never holding back or worried that
Time would come to an end

When I went I left from the station
With a haversack and some trepidation
Someone said, "If you're not careful
You'll have nothing left and nothing to care for
In the nineteen-seventies"
