about

It was with this song that our producer, Mr T Pattison, demonstrated his daringly experimental side by deleting the guitar on the first verse. Most people, I'm sure, would think that my guitar playing is the highlight of any Validators album, but Tim was unafraid to go against such universal orthodoxy.

The removal of guitars went even further when I attempted to play the solo in the middle and completely failed, eventually having to yield to The Tiger, who played it MASSIVELY on his Electrical Violin.

This is actually my favourite sounding song on the whole album, especially when the trumpet comes in.

lyrics

We can start having fun
When all our homework's done
When we've revised
Our mocks and applied
For University

We can start making friends
When this semester ends
There's theses to write
And CVs to type
I'm a team player

We can start to relax
In the next band of tax
We've children to raise
And more bills to pay
Responsibilities

I have spent most of my life
Doing what I hoped was right
I've studied and learnt
I've saved, paid and earnt
I've done enough waiting

Let people laugh all that they like
I want a motorbike
Screw caravans
I'm joining a band
Won't you play piano?

So take my hand and come on
Let's bugger off into the sun
Let's spend all our cash
While we still can
We can start having fun
