Saint Etienne - Teenage Winter Lyrics
Amy checks the shopping list
Pedal bin, washing-up rack, Sandtex
And she goes to the baker's to buy a loaf
Ah, she keeps forgetting it's changed into the Tropicana tanning salon
Mrs. Brown sits at the counter
Pricing down some old stock
The Moon's a Balloon, two copies of Every Loser Wins, Noel's Blobbyland, deluxe edition
There's not much left on the doorstep recently
Something to do with eBay, Johnny reckons
He's bidding on it now, for a Subbuteo catalogue, '81-'82
He'll win it, put it in a drawer, and forget he ever bought it
Holding on...
To something...
Exactly what you're waiting for
Now...
Teenage winter's coming down
Teenage winter throws a gown
Over every place I've been
And every little dream
Forever...
Phone rings in Gary's flat
"Can I speak to Mr. G. Staid, please"
He hangs up and takes Tony the milk
"See you in the Hat and Fan at seven"
Gary can't believe the Claremont Road pitch is going to be covered in executive housing
He talks about the Newcastle game, Boncho's debut, but
Tony can hardly hear him
They took the jukebox out, and the Aussie bar staff are playing the Red Hot Chili Peppers
He tells him what he thinks
He manages to keep it clean
Buys another round
Holding on...
To something...
And not knowing...
Exactly what you're waiting for
Now
Teenage winter's coming down
Teenage winter throws a gown
Over every place I've been
And every little dream
Forever
Now
Teenage winter's coming down
Teenage winter throws a gown
Over every place I've been
And every little dream
Forever
Now
Teenage winter's coming down
Teenage winter throws a gown
Over every place I've been
And every little dream
Forever
Now
Teenage winter's coming down
Teenage winter throws a gown
Over every place I've been
And every little dream
Forever
Mums with pushchairs outside Sainsbury's
Tears in their eyes
They'll never buy a Gibb Brothers record again
Their old 45s gathering dust
The birthday cards they couldn't face throwing away
Teenage winter coming down
Teenage winter coming down

Saint Etienne Teenage Winter Comments
I wonder how Aussies in Britain feel when they hear the line about the Aussie bar staff constantly playing Red Hot Chilli Peppers once the jukebox gets thrown out of the pub. The other line about bidding on a 70s Subbuteo set on ebay, winning it and putting in a drawer, then forgetting about it forever is also like a big fuck off blade slicing your soul... but the jukebox-free pub with Red Hot Chilli Peppers blasting is just about the most genius description of tragedy ever.
This song is astounding!
I do like the winter scenes. And they are coming soon to my area
Its like the winter of México...
