Lyrics Hawkwind – 25 Years

I went to school and I studied and I got my G.C.E.
My City and Guilds and my Sky Diary
But it didn’t do me no good
They didn’t like my looks, I burnt my books

I started out one day
And I worked in a factory
My mind went blank
I needed a battery
Didn’t do me no good
I got the sack
My work was slack

25 years, 25 years, 25 years, 25 years
25 years, 25 years, 25 years, 25 years
25 years, 25 years, 25 years, 25 years
25 years, 25 years, 25 years, 25 years
25 years, 25 years, 25 years, 25 years
25 years, 25 years, 25 years, 25 years

‘Cause 25 years doesn’t matter anymore
I stand around the streets
And lie around the floor
Looking at the sky
I watch the world go by
They say there’s life up there in the galaxy
The world’s in collision
There’s people with an allergy

25 years, 25 years, 25 years
25 years of social research and
25 years, 25 years, 25 years, 25 years
