(billy bragg) I was twenty-one years when i wrote this song I'm twenty-two now, but i won't be for long People ask me when will i grow up to understand Why the girls i knew at school are already pushing prams I loved you then as i love you still Though i put you on a pedestal, you put me on the pill I don't feel bad about letting you go I just feel sad about letting you know I don't want to change the world I'm not looking for a new england Are you looking for another girl I loved the words you wrote to me But that was bloody yesterday I can't survive on what you send Every time you need a friend I saw two shooting stars last night I wished on them, but they were only satellites It's wrong to wish on space hardware I wish, i wish, i wish you'd care I don't want to change the world I'm not looking for a new england Are you looking for another girl My dreams were full of strange ideas My mind was set despite the fears But other things got in the way I never asked that boy to stay Once upon a time at home I sat beside the telephone Waiting for someone to pull me through When at last it didn't ring, i knew it wasn't you I don't want to change the world I'm not looking for a new england Are you looking for another girl
