Back In the Day Lyrics

They day I mugged an old lady was the day that ruined my life
I was in a big gang of skinheads, they were very good friends of mine
We were thick, thick as three planks of wood
And we did it just because we could
The night I pissed on a mattress was a moment of disbelief
When I woke up cold in the morning, she didn't look happy with me
And I fell into bed like a stone
I wet the bed, oh, but at least I got home
Back in the day when I was young
I thought that life was just for fun
I thought I was invincible, but all that had to change
I still think I'm impossible, but maybe not as strange as I was
Back in the day
The day I punched you in Harrods was a day that I won't forget
I was removed by a man and a woman, I was totally out of my head

And I'm sorry I acted that way
But all of it was back in the day
Back in the day when I was young
I thought that life was just for fun
I thought I was invincible, but all that had to change
I still think I'm impossible, but maybe not as strange as I was
Back in the day
The day I threw up in a matchbox was bizarre beyond any doubt
I'd been at a bottle of Teachers, I was trying not to let it flow out
I was drunk, but with OCD
What on earth was the matter with me?
So here I am, and I'm soft as green
And I'm still living my improbably dream
I thought I was invincible, but all that had to change
I still think I'm impossible, but maybe not as strange as
Back in the day when I was young
I thought that life was just for fun
I thought I was invincible, but all that had to change
I still think I'm impossible, but maybe not as strange as I was
Back in the day
Back in the day
Back in the day
