be young

The Libertines

We were born astride the grave, it was too late yesterday
We tried to do our ministry, got kicked right off the stage
To rise up in the face of the whole human disgrace
All the souls in all their soil, boiling up in oil
Is anybody out there? Does anybody care?
It's to hell in a handcart, we'll meet you there

Stand up or shut up
Rise up or give up
Get up, stand up, are you coming out tonight?

Oh, be young, fall in love
Oh, be young, fall in love

This lyrical tautology, freedom and democracy
Enslavement and autocracy
The plan?t still will rot, you see
Music and mythology, fire gods, astrology
Autoeroticology, are you coming out tonight?

Oh, b? young, fall in love
Oh, be young, fall in love

Wandering away, there's no wandering away
Sha-la, la, sha-la, la, sha-la, la, sha-la, la
From total and utter annihilation
Sha-la, la, sha-la-ah
You're wondering away when you're one degree away
Sha-la, la, sha-la, la, sha-la, la, sha-la, la
From total and utter fucking annihilation
Sha-la, la, sha-la-ah

Oh, be young, fall in love
Oh, be young, fall in love
