My mother says
My head is in the clouds
I’m a daydreamer
I’m lost in sound
If you see me
With my head hanging down
I’m shoegazing
Listening to my world
I’m okay
I’m all right
I’m doing my thing
Just living my life
Don’t you worry about me
Don’t you make me smile
Just give me some space
I want to win my race
Walk like a crocodile
Live in my own style
My mother says
I’ve a great head of hair
But there’s nothing in between
My two perfect ears
I’ve no goals or our plans
Just dreams of guitars
And girls and cars
And late night bars
Where everyone is partying
Everyone is cool
Dancing to the music
Making our own rules
Not going back to school
The summer is here
No one gonna stop us
We’re out In the clear
But nobody ever did anyway
It’s all in our heads
The world is a dream
Heaven is now
