That was me, at the scout camp, in the school play, spade and bucket

By the sea, that was me

That was me, playing conkers, at the bus stop, on a blanket

In the bluebells, that was me

The same me that stands here now

When I think that all this stuff

Well, that was me, Royal Irish, on the river, Mersey beatin'

With the band, that was me

Yeah that was me, sweatin' cobwebs, under contract, in the cellar

On TV, that was me

That was me, at the party, sweatin' cobwebs, in the cellar

On TV, yeah that was me

The same me that stands here now

When I think that all this stuff

Can make a life, it's pretty hard to take it in

That was me, that was me, yeah
