My Uptight Life Lyrics


The morning sun please open up my eyes
What I see is the same world I know you're seeing
My dreams are real until I realise
Realising's a slow fade from thought to being
The waking world is full of cynics sighs
Cynicism's a box and I don't want to be in
I'll stay in bed until I stabilizeI try to write this song
To move my life along
I know what I dream of
I'll save my life for loveHidden meanings don't need to hide
When I hide from the world you're the one who'll find me
They don't need screening from the world outside
If the truth's overdue, I know you'll remind me
If the truth police are sniffing out a lie
I've done nothing in life, I can't put behind me
I'll use my life as an alibiMeaning is something I got from you
Whenever I lost the plot you knew
What is it I haven't got

When I've got you?Meaning is something I got from you
Whenever I lost the plot you knew
What is it I haven't got
When I've got you?All my life I felt so uptight
Now it's all, all right
All my life I felt so uptight
Now it's all, all right
All my life I felt so uptight
Now it's all, all right
...

Teenage Fanclub are an indie rock band from Bellshill, Scotland near Glasgow, formed in 1989, and were formerly known as The Boy Hairdressers. They have two generally known humorous nicknames "The Fannies" and "The Bellshill Beach Boys"

Teenage Fanclub are revered for their devotion to chiming, Byrds-esque guitars and harmony vocals. Songwriting duties are shared between the three permanent members of the band, Norman Blake, Raymond McGinley, and Gerard Love.

In 2006, the band held two special concerts in London and Glasgow, playing their 1991 masterpiece Bandwagonesque in its entirety.

There have been a succession of drummers, including:

- Francis MacDonald (a prime-mover in the C86 scene, later of the BMX Bandits), the drummer in the original lineup, and in a later period
- Brendan O’Hare (later of Telstar Ponies, Thrapple , Mogwai and Macrocosmica)

and

- Paul Quinn (later of The Primary 5), who was later replaced by the returning Francis MacDonald.

Keyboardist Finlay MacDonald (no relation to Francis MacDonald) has also been a member.
