You've been so green, you can't now what I mean
I'm keen to convene, have you seen what I've seen?
Between the man and his machine, a latrine and a libertine
Now that you are 18

Between the clean and gasoline, the queen and a works canteen
Now that you are 18
Your sheen is serene, your regime's become routine
I don't mean to demean but guillotine that magazine
Between esteem and plasticine, harem and benedictine
Now that you are 18

Between caffeine and nicotine, polythene and pastures green
Now that you are-
Every day is a ray of sunshine
When you open up your mind you'll be a genius
Every day will stay fine
When you want to be heard
When you're willing to learn we'll be waiting for you

You are 18
Now that you are 18
Now that you are 18
Now that you are 18
Every day is a ray of sunshine
Every day will stay fine
As long as there's nothing to do
Every day is a ray of sunshine
Every day will stay fine
