Umbrellahead Lyrics

They say if you leave a horse alone it dies Nestles into the hay and shuts its eyes Well I've dreamt of being that horse a hundred times And I end up a pile of bones and a cloud of flies And when you're nine years old you don't care If you're on your own or one of a pair And when you get salt in your eyes, sand in your hair Call for mum or daddy; they'll be there
And please don't turn me into a man 'Cuz I don't want to see my skin fold Oh please won't you keep me as I am Oh people look so lonely when they're old, when they're old [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/umbrellahead-lyrics-mystery-jets.html ]
When you come of age, it's not the same No umbrella over head when it rains And your friends would rather get high than play a game Oh it's such a shame the way they change And Emily's hungover, Bill feels ruff Thinks his girlfriend might be up the duff, again Well she threw up twice last night on the bus And I never thought growing old could be so tough
Oh please don't turn me into a man 'Cuz I don't want to see my skin fold Oh please won't you keep me as I am Oh people look so lonely when they're old, when they're old
