The Saturday Kids

The Saturday Kids - Mott The Hoople

Clouds among the sercher natch

The feelings that you catch

The worries through the years

There was a time in 69

Now the fools are cool

And my dream appears

It was in 1971

The crowd that called us young

The pullding for the childs

So he was such a natch

Boy but what a catch

Do you laugh about

Do you remember the saturday kids

We did we did

Did you get off on the saturday kids

We did we did

Do you remember all those dreams

Fantasies alive

A fairy tale yeah

69 was safeway wine

Have a good time what's your sign

Float up to the roundhouse

On a sunday afternoon

In 70 I found out about me

I didn't like what I saw

So I looked some more

There you go you never know

In 71 we were dumb

On the run too little done

Take the mick out of top of the pops

To much energies drag

In 73 we started to lose

Oh the band got the blues

'N I got the 'flu

Oh God what a year

Then we went to croydon

Do you remember the saturday gigs

We did we did

Do you remember the saturday gigs

We did we did

Tickets for the fantasy were 12 and 6 a time

A fairy tale on sale

Oh 73 was a jamboree

The dudes were the news

And the dudes was we

Did you see the suits the platform boots

Hey man you wanna party

In 74 was the broadway tour

But we didn't much like dressing up any more

Don't wanna be hip

But thanks for a great trip

Do you remember the saturday gigs

We do we do

Do you remember the saturday gigs

We do we do

And now the kids pay a couple of quid

'Cause they need it just the same

But it's just another game

Just another game

But you got off on those saturday gigs that we did we did

'Cause you got off on those saturday gigs that we did we did

And we got off on those saturday gigs that you did you did

And we got off on those saturday gigs 'cause you did you did

Goodbye

Don't you ever forget us and we'll never forget you

Just going to sleep for a little while - you be good right

See you again some time ta ra

Goodbye
