now that I've changed and the rest have all stayed
well, why do I feel so confused?
some of the best of me plans have been laid
and some of me best moments used
I've been out for the count in a Mexican bar-o
stranded in nowhere with a-nothing but me
ah, lads, I did(n't) understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland

some of the shit has sprouted in roses
and some of the roses have died
forced by meself to follow conviction
and ignore what I'm missing inside
I've been loved by the sweetest and hated by heroes
life's still (a) surprise and the friends come and go
ah, lads, I did(n't) understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland

(whoop-whoop, whoop-whoop)

I've had praise I've had ridicule, either meant nothing
faced with the task of tomorrow's demands
oh, lads, I didn't understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland
oh, lads, I didn't understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland
(whoop-whoop)
oh, lads, I didn't understand - I'm a Geordie in Wonderland
