The Clarks » Born Too Late Lyrics

Vincent will you teach me how to paint
Teresa will I ever be a saint
John I really think your songs are great
I was born too late

William will you teach me how to write
Cassius will you show me how to fight
Thomas A. I think I see the light
I was born tonight

I’ve had a hard time leaving this town
I’ve been losing everything that I’ve found
I’m gonna search the sky, kiss the ground
Build it up and tear it back down

I’ve had a hard time leaving this place
I’ve been counting all the lines on my face
I’m gonna curse the sky, hit the ground
What goes up comes tumbling down

Jimi show me how you play that thing
Elvis will I ever be a king
and Jerry all the joy and love you bring
I was born to sing

Martin Luther King show me the way
Jesus Buddha teach me how to pray
Christopher I think I see the bay
I was born today

Born too late by Saint Vitus

Every time I’m on the street
People laugh and point at me
They talk about my length of hair
And the out of date clothes I wear

They say I look like the living dead
They say I can’t have much in my head
They say my songs are much too slow
But they don’t know the things I know

I know I don’t belong
And there’s nothing I can do
I was born too late
And I’ll never be like you

In my life things never change
To everybody I seem strange
But in my world now something’s died
So I just stare with these insane eyes

I know I don’t belong
And there’s nothing that I can do
I was born too lte
And I’ll never be like you
