The Dreggs - Get Knocked Down Lyrics

      

Get Knocked Down
by The Dreggs

Verse 1
Look at these photographs, they're messing with my head
I compare myself with the younger version of me instead
And I find no reason to get myself off what I've lost
But it's a changing four seasons, I force myself to watch the clock

Chorus
I get knocked down
Then I feel sorry for myself
I know some days that I feel old
I know I'm not old
I still got nothing left to prove
But I feel old enough that I got lots to lose
But I'm not old
I get knocked down to it

Verse 2
Look at this TV skit, it's melting in my brain
Hey man, do you remember how scary this was in our younger days?
And I find every reason to look for things that make mе feel
That I'm well past my use-by date and I suddеnly care about the clothes I wear

Chorus
I get knocked down
Then I feel sorry for myself
On lonesome days that I feel old
I know I'm not old
I still got nothing left to prove
But I feel old enough that I got lots to lose
But I'm not old

Bridge
All the baby boomers are sipping their organic oxygen
While I'm stuck here thinking 'bout how chips were two bucks fifty when I was a child
All the boys and girls are screaming for their iPhones and their watches
While some of us are scrambling to put gas in our shitboxes, we sing

Chorus
Oh
I know I'm not old
I still got nothing left to prove
But I feel old enough that I got lots to lose
But I'm not old
I still got nothing left to prove
But I feel old enough that I got lots to lose
But I'm not old
I get knocked down to it
