John's Gay

And we've learnt to kick a ball

We're not quite cynical

But we've written on the wall

John's gay

He's gay

And Janet's friends with John

And she says that we're all scum

He just gets his homework done

And won't play not today



What will we grow up to be

(Ask your brother)

What will we grow up to see

(Can't be bothered)

Will you still be friends with me

Fourteen, fifteen, sixteen



Martin grew out of his A-team vest

Nicked the pedals off my BMX

And he says that he's had sex

With a girl, for effect

I lost my virginity

The year above us had discovered E

And I said it weren't for me, £12.50



What will we grow up to be

(Ask your brother)

What will we grow up to see

(Can't be bothered)

Will you still be friends with me

Fourteen, fifteen



We hide in bandstands and talk in the dark

Rain's never cold when you're young

We were devoted to us from the start

I know too much how to feel

Young!



And we've learnt to kick a ball

And we're not quite cynical

But we've written on the wall

John's gay

He's gay



What will we grow up to be

(Ask your brother)

What will we grow up to see

(Can't be bothered)

Will you still be friends with me

Fourteen, fifteen



What will we grow up to be

(Ask your brother)

What will we grow up to see

(Can't be bothered)

Will you still be friends with me

Fourteen, fifteen



Young!
