Divinyls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And all the things that I'm thinking of
Nothing's gonna change my world
And all the things that are in the world
I'm back, back on the corner
Back on the street back with my friends
Back on the street back with my friends
Better days I'm changing those days
In so many ways for better days
Bad old days I'm changin those days
In so many ways for better days
Nothings going to break my back
Or change my perception of where it's at
No one's going to break my neck
There's people here that statement will regret
Been going forward backward forward
Backward sometimes I've been standing still
Hey
I'm back, don't need a shoulder
I'm getting older getting much bolder
Changing those dreams for facts
