Seventeen

Thirteen, kicked out for fifty days
Fourteen, a tramp since '88
Through broken glass I fell and stayed
It got into my brain

I've gone away at seventeen
I've gone away at seventeen
And all the things I should have been
But I've gone away at seven-

Away
Away
Away

Twelve years or more went down the drain
Spent ninety days rotting in state
Fifteen, woke up, spat out the bait
Sixteen, regenerate

I've gone away at seventeen
I've gone away at seventeen
And all the things I could have been
But I've gone away at seven-

Away
Away
Away

Clean the brains off my boots
Let the blood out my veins
Starve the rat of his roots
Don't you step on the snake

I've gone away at seventeen
I've gone away at seven-
I've gone away at seventeen
I've gone away at seven-

Away
Away
Away
Away
