There’s better ways of making cash

Than waiting in parks and selling your arse

But I’m on the move and about to stay

Always old in a very young way

I’m a fool to myself when I think now

I believed in the why but didn’t know how

And now I don’t fit with no place to go

Only down in a comical show

All of the promises and all the dreams

Couldn’t put Humpty back on his feet

All the queens horses and all the queens guards

Couldn’t put money back in the yards

On the move and about to stay

Always old in a very young way

On the move and about to stay

Always old in a very young way

There’s better ways of losing your pride

Than waiting in queues for a cheque at a time

But I’ve been taught that it’s me whose the ponce

And I can only act as I’ve been taught to respond

But there’s better ways to make ends meet

Than shuffling through life dead on your feet

But here we are and there they stay

With their very small handouts in a very big way

On the move and about to stay

Always old in a very young way

On the move and about to stay

Always old in a very young way
