I Remember Once
Gilbert O'Sullivan

I remember once as a boy of nine

My sister eating glass

Though she thought it strange

For a glucose fruit

She enjoyed the taste it had

Having lived with you over seven years

It's amazing looking back

At the time our parents were of the view

Outside marriage it would never last

Now my parents they were

Divorced last year

And yours are separating soon

If they'd spent less time picking holes in us

Maybe they might not have been doomed

I remember once, as a child at school

My teacher calling me

And it, wasn't 'Raymond, step forward please'

It was 'O'Sullivan, come here'

Now at school they teach you to be polite

But as far as I am concerned

If the ones who teach you

Don't know themselves

How on earth are we supposed to learn

You might remember, just a few years back

Man's first footprints on the moon

Who'd have thought that after

Such a giant step

It would mean so little so soon

Mean so little so soon

If you go outside for a breath or air

And you start by breathing in

When you feel it's done you a power of good

It could have done more damage than you'd think

For the air we breath may be all that's ours

But you mustn't be fooled by space

At the rate we're going we'll all be dead

Breathing in our very own waste

Its amazing really, let me explain

But the thought of ending up dust

Is a clear reminder to those who feel

They're superior to us... Superior to us
