Lyrics for Too Much Too Young

You've done too much Much too young Now you're married with a kid When you could be having fun with me Oh no, no gimme no more pickni You've done too much Much too young Now you're married with a son When you should be having fun with me We don't want, we don't want We don't want no more pickni Ain't he cute? No he ain't He's just another burden On the welfare state You've done too much Much too young Now you're married with a kid When you could be having fun with me No gimme, no gimme No gimme no more pickni Call me immature Call me a poser I'd love to spread manure in your bed of roses Don't want to be rich Don't want to be famous But I'd really hate to have the same name as you (You silly moo) You've done too much Much too young Now you're married with a kid When you could be having fun with me Gi we de birth control, we no want no pickni You've done too much Much too young Now you're chained to the cooker Making currant buns for tea Oh no, no gimme no more pickni Ain't you heard of the starving millions Ain't you heard of contraception Do you really a program of sterilization Take control of the population boom It's in your living room Keep a generation gap Try wearing a cap! You've done too much Much too young Now you're married with a kid When you could be having fun with me No, no, no gimme No more pickni You've done too much Much too young Now you're stayin' up every night watching programs on TV We don't want, we don't want We don't want no more pickni You've done too much Much too young Now you're married with a son When you could be having fun with me No gimme, no gimme No gimme, no more pickni You've done too much Much too young Now you're chained to the cooker Making currant buns for tea No gimme bad culture No more pickni You've done too much Much too young Now you're married to a man When you could be having fun with me No, no, no gimme No more pickni You've done too much You've done too much Much too young You've done too much Much too young Now you're chained to the cooker Making beans on toast for tea You've done too much Much too young Now you're married with a kid When you could be having fun with me Oh no, no gimme no more pickni You've done too much Much too young Now you're married to a man When you could be having fun with me You've done too much Much too young Now you're married to a man When you could be having fun with me We don't want, we don't want We don't want no more pickni You've done too much Much too young Now you're chained to the cooker Making cheese on toast for tea Oh no, no gimme no more pickni You've done too much Much too young Now you're married with a kid When you could be having fun with me You've done too much Much too young Now you're stayin' up every night watching programs on TV Oh no, no gimme no more pickni You've done too much Much too young Now you're married with a son When you should be having fun with me Oh no, no gimme no more pickni
