Kid Chameleon - I'm Faking It, I'm Not 17 Lyrics

I'm faking it, I'm not 17, it's been 10 years
I'm told that I need a plan, they're not wrong
Finding stamp saving books in Blonde On Blonde
I'm faking it, I'm not 17, it's been 10 years
Riding around the city trying to find burned-out buildings, pointless signs:
'A silent vigil for peace'
'Open all day 11am til...'

I'm racing through speeding
My legs are nearly bleeding from the field now thigh-length high
I'm laughing as I go hysterical and weak-willed
I hope these weekend coastline nights can bring me closer to you

I'm taking everything that's been said to me in the last 10 years
The bad advice I've followed threw me back even further than I knew was possible
When lowest lows bred even worse than worse news
Thinking has it really been that long?
So much joy
So much gone wrong
I'm faking it, I'm not 17, it's been 10 years
I'm faking it, I'm not 17, it's been 10 years

I'm racing through speeding
My legs are nearly bleeding from the field now thigh-length high
I'm laughing as I go hysterical and weak-willed
I hope these weekend coastline nights can bring us closer
I'm racing through speeding
My legs are nearly bleeding from the field now thigh-length high
I'm laughing as I go hysterical and weak-willed
I hope these weekend coastline nights can bring me closer to you

I'm faking it, I'm not 17, it's been 10 years
I'm faking it, I'm not 17, it's been 10 years
