[00:00.54] I might look a certain age
[00:03.34] But this book has some missing pages
[00:06.63] Got the introduction right
[00:09.93] But I've been stuck on it for ages
[00:13.13] I might sit and look like you
[00:15.67] But I can't do the things you do
[00:18.68] The years belie my true conviction
[00:21.88] This life is a work of fiction
[00:26.92] You must not leave me in this company
[00:32.52] I think they'll know that they've got years on me
[00:39.29] Oh they will find me out most certainly
[00:44.09] Cause they will surely see the child in me
[00:50.53] If this is what we're calling fun
[00:53.53] I think I'll use this chance to run
[00:56.78] Instead of making conversation
[00:59.77] I really do not have the patience
[01:02.87] How do I get qualified?
[01:52.48][01:05.91] To act completely horrified
[01:08.78] When hearing tales that honestly
[01:11.89] I would have told myself you see
[01:16.48] You must not leave me in this company
[01:22.83] I think they'll know that they've got years on me
[01:28.08] Oh they will find me out most certainly
[01:33.37] Cause they will surely see the child in me
[01:40.95] I really think you know me better
[01:43.60] I really think you know me better
[01:46.34] Won't you stay just a little while longer?
[01:49.23] Won't you stay 'till
[01:50.88] I feel a bit stronger?
[01:52.55] I really think you know me better
[01:55.80] I really think you know me better
[01:58.85] Won't you stay just a little while longer?
[02:01.20] Won't you stay 'till
[02:02.75] I feel a bit stronger?
[02:04.73] You must not leave me in this company
[02:10.25] I think they'll know that they've got years on me
[02:16.44] Oh they will find me out most certainly
[02:21.78] Cause they will surely see the child in me
[02:27.83] Oh they will surely see the child in me
[02:33.73] Oh they will surely see the child in me
[02:39.43] Oh they will surely see the child in me
