The stage back then

Liner Notes

Lyrics

What did it feel like Way back then It’s hard to remember Like it didn’t happen I know that it did

I was a quiet child Always in the background Never any good at sport Or able to defend myself Always had middling reports from school

It was a difficult time To be different The stage was my release I could be someone I’m not Someone with self-belief

My Hamlet was sublime Though I was only nine I inhabited the role It suited me just fine A frog no more a tadpole
