One Day It Will Please Us To Remember Even This (2006)

I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen.
I'm seventeen years old, this
can't be happening.
I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen.
I'm seventeen years old, this
can't be happening.

At twenty-one I thought,
this is fine, but is this all there is?
At twenty-five I didn't feel alive
But I said that I'd get used to it.

I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen.
I'm seventeen years old, this
can't be happening.
I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen.
I'm seventeen years old, this
can't be happening.

let's go hi hi hi yi
let's go hi hi hi yi
let's go hi hi hi yi

At thirty-one, I'm told,
I'll feel old, but I'd understand it.
At thirty-two I came unglued,
Now maybe I'd live.

I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen.
I'm seventeen years old, this
can't be happening.
I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen.
I'm only seventeen years old,
this can't be happening.

let's go hi hi hi yi
let's go hi hi hi yi
let's go hi hi hi yi
