First recorded in July 2021.
From the album Spuk1.

This song was where it all began for me on here. The first time I tried to write anything serious. 
It's a song about me, and a couple of old drinking friends. About youth, drinking too much, and the sheer bloody waste of it all.

This new version was mixed and mastered by

LYRICS

Saw the weakness of my generation. 
All enjoying a bottle or two.
And who quickly progressed from those dancing young nights and then searched till their minds were shot through.
Who are sad that they're still by the ocean? 
But why would that be? 
Who's castles of sand crumbled right in their hands as they entered into their thirties?

Oh, these are the days, and this is your life.
Oh, these are your days, and this is your life.

Pitied the best minds of his generation.
And watched as they struggled to breathe.
Who has seen them descend into madness?
Stressed out from the ordinary.
Who is glad that he lives by the ocean?
Why wouldn't he be?
Who with just a bit more education. 
Could have turned into a somebody.

Oh, these are the days, and this is your life.
Your heads gone to pieces.
Give yourself a break and make a new start.


Who is sat with Little Miss Moffat.
Glugging down all her peaches and cream.
Who is moving on to bottles of vodka?
To get to that place more quickly. 
Who feels sad as she looks at the ocean?
And why would that be?
Who has wasted the rest and is failing the test?
Passing out, never falling to sleep 

Oh, these are your days, and this is your life.
So don't worry too much.
Never stood a chance right from the start.
Cos nobody told yas.
Starting drinking at Twelve. 
What did you expect?
Your heads gone to peices.
Give yourself a break and make a new start.
Before you start fading away.
