Kaiser Chiefs - Girl Of My Age

You were the one in the back, in the mack
I cracked you a smile and you cracked us one back

What are you gonna say?
Are you turning away?
I see you here everyday
So maybe we could be friends

You were the one with the holes in your shoes
If this isn't over, it's over to you

I did all that i can
Now it's out of my hands
Do you have any plans
For this evening?

I've seen it happen
On the television
But it doesn't happen
Least not to you and me

I was looking forward to a night on the town
With a girl of my age it was nice to be around
I was looking forward to a night on the town
With a girl of my age it was nice to be around

But it didn't happen like that
Because she never called me back
It doesn't happen like that
And they never tell you that

I was the one in the back, in the mack
I sat by the window, you looked at me back

You've got nothing to say
So you bumped in away
I see you here everyday
So maybe we should be friends

I was the one with the map of the world
The pages are faded, the edges are curled

Take it out of the drawer
Pin it up to the door
I've got the itch to explore
I'll see you later, bye

I've seen it happen
On the television
But it doesn't happen
Not to the likes of you and me

I was looking forward to a night on the town
With a girl og my age it was nice to be around
I was looking forward to a night on the town
With a girl of my age it was nice to be around

But it didn't happen like that
Because she never called me back
It doesn't happen like that
And they never tell you that

But it didn't happen like that
Because she never phoned me back

I was looking forward to a night on the town
With a girl og my age it was nice to be around
I was looking forward to a night on the town
With a girl of my age it was nice to be around
