[Verse 1]
The sun is shining hard at my feet
The city is an animal ready to eat
And it's raining like a nose bleed, cigarettes and sweets
I feel it coming on
Bloody as the day I was born

[Chorus]
It's 1974
Just like the day I was born
It's 1974

[Verse 2]
She isn't crazy
She's just not impressed
She stabs me with her eyes
Dirty knives hidden in her dress
It's raining like the bombs in my room when I'm alone
I swear I think I knew you before
Just like the day I was born

[Chorus]
It's 1974
Just like the day I was born
It's 1974
Just like the day I was born
It's 1974
Just like the day I was born
It's 1974
[Bridge]
Do you want it, do you want it, do you want it, come on
Do you want it, do you want it, come on just bring it on
Nothing's gonna stop it now
But nothing
Do you want it, come on
Do you want it, do you want it, come on just bring it on

[Outro]
It's 1974
It's 1974
It's 1974
It's 1974
