Once and Never Again

Nineteen, you're only nineteen, for God's sake

Oh, you don't need a boyfriend

Nineteen, you're only nineteen, for God's sake

Oh, you don't need a boyfriend

Look what he's made you do to your arm again

He said he'd come round, but he's gone out with his friends

I know how it feels to be your age

And feel the world is caving in

Another drama by the kitchen sink tonight

You said you'd cut yourself whilst washing up the knives

Another week off school won't do you any good

I know how it feels to be your age

Nineteen, you're only nineteen, for God's sake

Oh, you don't need a boyfriend

Nineteen, you're only nineteen, for God's sake

Oh, you don't need a boyfriend

Come back with me and find out what you really want

Come home with me, you'll only have to do it once

'Cause I know what it feels like to be your age

You only have to do it once and never again

Another drama by the kitchen sink tonight

You said you'd cut yourself whilst washing up the knives

Another week off school won't do you any good

I know how it feels to be your age

You know I'm not so young

I spend an hour getting ready every day

And still I end up looking more or less the same

But I could show you a thing or two

Oh, I could show you the ropes

Yes, I could show you the ropes

And I would cut my hair for you

'Cause I know how it feels

I know how it feels to be your age

I know how it feels to be your age

Oh, how I'd love to feel a girl your age

Your age

Once and never again
