Story behind the song
Omar (Wake of Destruction) suggested some people put up their earliest recordings for others to hear how we've changed. This is one of my earliest recordings from around 1999/2000 from an old Tascam four track tape recorder mixed down to cassette, hence the degraded sound quality.
Lyrics
Don't look at me like I'm insane, I just wanna entertain you I don't wanna get old before my time 'Cos I believe in rock n' roll, the music saves my mortal soul and the rhythm has got me feeling fine As time flies by we try to make it last 'cos todays future is tomorrow's past and we never wanna lose the fire inside If I was old and grey what would I say about the way the kids are today? When I'm 79 I'll still be doing fine and I'll be 21 in my mind Forever young inside If you look into my eyes, what you see might just surprise you There must be something wrong inside my head I haven't changed since just a kid, I still do what I always did and I'll be doing it until I'm dead As time flies by you try to make it last 'cos todays future is tomorrow's past and we never wanna lose the fire inside If I was old and grey what would I say about the way the kids are today? When I'm 79 I'll still be doing fine and I'll be 21 in my mind Forever young inside -solo- Don't look at me like I'm insane, sit back let me entertain you You don't wanna get old before your time I haven't changed since just a kid, I still do what I always did and I'll be doing it until I die But when I'm old and grey what will I say about the way the kids are today? When I'm 79 I'll still be doing fine and I'll be 21 in my mind Forever young inside (c) Copyright Craig Matthews 1999
