They've Only Themselves To Blame, lyric by Gilbert O'sullivan

from the songs album I'm A Writer Not A Fighter


I'm afraid that from today our meeting
Must be temporarily postponed
It seems our parents followed us one evening
Caught us walking one another home
Now i have been confined till further notice
Told i should be thoroughly ashamed
And for all the good that it will do me
They've only themselves to blame

I don't understand a word they're saying
Telling me it's for our own good
Do they think that we're just children playing
How can we be so misunderstood

I am a man the same as any other
Younger though i may be in my years
Tell me i'm a child who should know better
And you won't see me holding back the tears
Can't they get it through their heads i love you
Must i try so hard to explain
If we're reported missing in the morning
Then they're only themselves to blame
They've only themselves to blame
