I Wish I Was a Punk Rocker (with Flowers in My Hair)

[Chorus:]
 Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
 In '77 and '69 revolution was in the air
 I was born too late into a world that doesn't care
 Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
 
 When the head of state didn't play guitar
 Not everybody drove a car
 When music really mattered and when radio was king
 When accountants didn't have control
 And the media couldn't buy your soul
 And computers were still scary and we didn't know everything
 
 [Chorus]
 
 When pop stars still remained a myth
 And ignorance could still be bliss
 And when god saved the queen she turned a whiter shade of pale
 My mom and dad were in their teens
 And anarchy was still a dream
 And the only way to stay in touch was a letter in the mail
 
 [Chorus]
 
 When record shops were still on top
 And vinyl was all that they stocked
 And the super info highway was still drifting out in space
 Kids were wearing hand me downs
 And playing games meant kick arounds
 And footballers still had long hair and dirt across their face
 
 [Chorus]
 
 I was born too late into a world that doesn't care
 Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
