I Was Eleven Lyrics

I Was ElevenWhen I started out the bandI wasn't even a teenage manI was young, so youngI was elevenYou should have seen us standing by the gearAnd the funny clothes we'd wearBut I was young, so youngI was elevenYou should have seen us with our phony phonogramPlaying records by the score of other bandsWe had started out to make it bigYou should have seen our first gigI was elevenI was elevenNow there was all of us at schoolAnd we were fighting every ruleWe were young, and we wonWe were elevenAnd the band began to playAnd we were playing every dayWe were so young, so youngI was elevenAnd so soon we got a PA and what a dayAnd the drummer got his drums so he could playWe had started out to make it bigMm you should have seen our first gigI was elevenI was elevenI was elevenI was eleven
