OH I WISH I WAS A PUNK ROCKER
WITH FLOWERS IN MY HAIR
IN 77 AND 69
REVOLUTION WAS IN THE AIR
I WAS BORN TOO LATE
INTO A WORLD THAT DOESN'T
CARE
OH I WISH I WAS A PUNK ROCKER
WITH FLOWERS IN MY HAIR
WHEN THE HEAD OF STATE
DIDN'T PLAY GUITAR
NOT EVERYBODY DROVE A CAR
WHEN MUSIC REALLY MATTERED
AND WHEN RADIO WAS KING
WHEN ACCOUNTANTS
DIDN'T HAVE CONTROL
AND THE MEDIA
COULDN'T BUY YOUR SOUL
AND COMPUTERS WERE STILL
SCARY
AND WE DIDN'T KNOW
EVERYTHING
OH I WISH I WAS A PUNK ROCKER
WITH FLOWERS IN MY HAIR
IN 77 AND 69
REVOLUTION WAS IN THE AIR
I WAS BORN TOO LATE
INTO A WORLD THAT DOESN'T
CARE
OH I WISH I WAS A PUNK ROCKER
WITH FLOWERS IN MY HAIR
WHEN POPSTARS
STILL REMAINED A MYTH
AND IGNORANCE
COULD STILL BE BLISS
AND WHEN GOD SAVED THE
QUEEN
SHE TURNED A WHITER SHADE OF
PALE
WHEN MY MOM AND DAD
WERE IN THEIR TEENS
AND ANARCHY
WAS STILL A DREAM
AND THE ONLY WAY
TO STAY IN TOUCH
WAS A LETTER IN THE MAIL
OH I WISH I WAS A PUNK ROCKER
WITH FLOWERS IN MY HAIR
IN 77 AND 69
REVOLUTION WAS IN THE AIR
I WAS BORN TOO LATE
INTO A WORLD THAT DOESN'T
CARE
OH I WISH I WAS A PUNK ROCKER
WITH FLOWERS IN MY HAIR
WHEN RECORD SHOPS
WERE STI L ON TOP
AND VINYL WAS ALL
THAT THEY STOCKED
AND THE SUPER INFO HIGHWAY
WAS STILL
DRIFTING OUT IN SPACE
KIDS WER WEARING
HAND ME DOWNS
AND PLAYING GAMES
MEANT KICK AROUND
AND FOOTBALLERS
STILL HAD LONG HAIR
AND DIRT ACR SS THEIR FACE
OH I WISH I WAS A PUNK ROCKER
WITH FLOWERS IN MY HAIR
IN 77 AND 69
REVOLUTION WAS IN THE AIR
I WAS BORN TOO LATE
INTO A WORLD THAT DOESN'T
CARE
OH I WISH I WAS A PUNK ROCKER
WITH FLOWERS IN MY HAIR
I WAS BORN TOO LATE
TO A WORLD THAT ESN'T CARE
OH I WISH I WAS A PUNK ROCKER
WITH FLOWERS IN MY HAIR
