I Was Eleven

When I started out the band I wasn't even a teenage man I was young, so young I was eleven. You should have seen us standing by the gear And the funny clothes we'd wear But I was young, so young I was eleven. You should have seen us with our phony phonogram Playing records by the score of other bands We had started out to make it big You should have seen our first gig I was eleven I was eleven. Now there was all of us at school And we were fighting every rule We were young and we won We were eleven. And so the band began to play And we were playing every day We were young, so young I was eleven. And so soon we got a PA and what a day And the drummer got his drums so he could play We had started out to make it big Mmm, you should have seen our first gig I was eleven I was eleven. Oh, yes! I was eleven I was eleven.
