You was a Punk in '77
And you was a Skinhead in '78
You tried Mod but you were too late,
Changing changing all the time

Ref.: And you was a Punk too late
And you was a Skinhead too late
And you was a Mod too late
And you was a Ted too late

Poseur poseur standing there
You change your style every year
Once straight but now a queer
You change your style every year

Ref.: And you was a Punk too late
And you was a Skinhead too late
And you was a Mod too late
And you was a Ted too late

New Romantics your'e too elite
You ain't worthy to kiss me feet
Your'e looking down on all you meet
New Romantics your'e too elite
