["When pop stars still remained a myth","I was born too late to a world that doesn't care","And footballers who had long hair and dirt across their face","In '77 and '69, revolution was in the air","","I was born too late to a world that doesn't care","In '77 and '69, revolution was in the air","I was born too late to a world that doesn't care","","And ignorance could still be bliss","Oh, I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair","Oh, I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair","","And when God Save the Queen she turned a whiter shade of pale","When the head of state didn't play guitar","I was born too late to a world that doesn't care","In '77 and '69, revolution was in the air","In '77 and '69, revolution was in the air","Oh, I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair","When record shops were on top","When music really mattered and when radio was king","Oh, I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair","When my mom and dad were in their teens","And playing games meant kick arounds","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","I was born too late to a world that doesn't care","And vinyl was all that they stocked","Not everybody drove a car","And computers were still scary and we didn't know everything","Kids were wearing hand-me-downs","","","Oh, I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair","","When accountants didn't have control","Oh, I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair","And the super info-highway was still drifting out in space","And the media couldn't buy your soul","Oh, I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair","Oh, I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair","And anarchy was still a dream",""]
