You, you were so young
The girls saw your body
And used it just for their fun
And you were so strong
But you weren't satisfied
Wanna keep it under your thumb
Now you owe me yesterday's news
So come and show me yesterday's news
I wanna touch you
'Cause ya yesterday's news
I wanna feel you, but you're yesterday's news
You, you're a pretty little girl
I've seen you on the telly
And seen hanging round my home
Well, I knew that your love was a lie
But I couldn't see it fading, and it faded I was surprised
Now you owe me yesterday's news
So come and show me yesterday's news
I wanna touch you
But ya yesterday's news
I wanna feel you
But you're yesterday's news
Ahh, come on!
You, you were so young
The girls saw your body
And used it just for their fun
And you were so strong
But you weren't satisfied
Wanna keep it under your thumb
