Lyrics for Youth Without Youth - Acoustic

Hangman, we played Rubber Soul with a razor blade Behind the church, hiding place It was a long joke 'til the punchline came Can you read my mind, read my mind? Follow along to the end of the song Hangman, we played Double Dutch with a hand grenade Behind the church, hiding place Apathetic to the Devil's face Wear the sheriff's badge, put your toys away They let us go, saying, "Let us pray" Hey, hey, hey, hey (Youth without youth) (Youth without youth) Hey, hey, hey, hey Hangman, we played Hide and seek on the fire escape Through the smoke, we saw the flame It was a long wait 'til the firetruck came On the count of three, jump with me On the count of three One, two One, two, three Go! (Youth without youth) (Youth without youth) Go, go, go, go (Youth without youth) (Youth without youth) Go, go, go, go Hangman, we played Blind man's bluff with the 9th Brigade Throw the brick through the windowpane Double Dutch 'til they stop the game 'Til the cops show up, handcuff stunned They let us go, but we lost one Hangman, we played Blind man's bluff 'til they stopped the game Youth without youth, born without time Youth without youth... (Youth without youth) (Youth without youth) Hey, hey, hey, hey (Youth without youth) (Youth without youth) Hey, hey, hey, hey
