Buzzcocks The 16 Again Lyrics

16 Again Lyrics

Feeling like i'm almost sixteen again

 Layin' 'round doing nothing like all my friends

 Play it cool don't get angry count up to ten

 Just like i was sixteen again

 

 Everybody gets the lowdown right from the start

 Everybody gets the showdown right from the heart

 But that's all that's on the menu and life's a la carte

 I don't know

 

 Things in life are not played for keeps

 If it makes you happy it'll make you weep

 And if you want some more practical advice

 If you can't think once then don't think twice

 Cos things won't seem so nice

 You'll wish you were sixteen again

 Oh no

 

 Feeling rather strange when you're sixteen again

 Things don't seem the same the past is so plain

 This future is our future this time's not a game

 This time you're sixteen again

 

 Always on your own when there's nobody else

 Asking myself would i be someone else

 But after all life's only death's recompense

 I don't know

 

 Things in life are not played for keeps

 If it makes you happy it'll make you weep

 And if you want some more practical advice

 If you can't think once then don't think twice

 Cos things won't seem so nice

 You'll wish you were sixteen again

 Oh no

 

 [solo]

 

 Look at me here i am for your eyes

 Mirrored proof of what you recognize

 I know i never will feel quite like you

 And i know you won't treat me right till i do

 But at least we'll know it's true

 That we're sixteen again

 Oh no

 

 Feeling rather strange when you're sixteen again

 Things don't seem the same the past is so plain

 This future is our future this time's not a game

 This time you're sixteen again

 

 Always on your own when there's nobody else

 Asking myself would i be someone else

 But after all life's only death's recompense

 I don't know

 

 Look at me here i am for your eyes

 Mirrored proof of love's suicide

 I know i never will feel quite like you

 And i know you won't treat me right till i do

 But at least we'll know it's true

 That we're sixteen again

 Oh no

 

 Sixteen again

 Sixteen again
