Noserings and Shoestrings Songtext
von Nina Nesbitt

Ruffled hair, a loose shoestring
Covered hair and a nose ring
He′s just misguided I think

He goes out 'til the lights come up
He doesn′t care for the day, mm
He doesn't know what he's worth

But he′s self confessed and a little obsessed
He gets money from his parents to try and impress
I guess that′s adolescence at its best
He's never put to the test but he′s still distressed
And he keeps a bottle inside his vest
I guess that's adolescence at its best

He says, "Live fast and die young
Forget the past and move on
What′s done is done"
He says, "Live fast and die young
Forget the past and move on
You only live once"


Woa-oh-oh-oh
Woa-oh-oh-oh
Woa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Hangs about at the skate-parks
With his lighter and his pack of cards
And he's going nowhere
Maybe if life wasn′t so hard
He got off to a better start
He'd be somewhere

But he's self confessed and a little obsessed
He gets money from his parents to try and impress
I guess that′s adolescence at its best
And he′s never put to the test but still distressed
And he keeps a bottle inside his vest
I guess that's adolescence at its best

He says, "Live fast and die young
Forget the past and move on
What′s done is done"
He says, "Live fast and die young
Forget the past and move on
You only live once"


Woa-oh-oh-oh
Woa-oh-oh-oh
Woa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Keep calm and carry on he's drunk all night long
He′ll sit with his guitar and play another song
Then he'll give me a phone
Another 5:00 a.m. call sitting worried in my hall
Will he come tonight before it gets light?
Well, I guess he might

And I′ll just keep calm and carry on
'Cause he's drunk all night long
But he′ll be home by dawn
I′ll keep calm and carry on
Whilst he's drunk all night long
′Cause he'll be home by dawn

And he says, "Live fast and die young
Forget the past and move on
What′s done is done"
He says, "Live fast and die young
Forget the past and move on
You only live once"

Woa-oh-oh-oh
Woa-oh-oh-oh
Woa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Woa-oh-oh-oh
Woa-oh-oh-oh
Woa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, mm, mm

What's done is done
