When they thought we had just "begun"
We found that gun.
When we were still "shining"
We went into hiding
When we were still "clean"
We made ourselves obscene
When we were still "new"
We had every clue
When we were "unsure"
We knew every cure
When we were "clueless"
We knew how to make it a mess
When we were still "earning"
We knew we were yearning
When were still in "need"
We really wanted to be freed
When we were still "looking at the sun"
We were slowly becoming undone
When we were still "grubby"
We were being publicly labelled as ruddy
When we were still doing "as we were told"
We were inside slowly turning cold
So when we were still you babies
We were wee spreading around the maybes
