I Was Born by Billy Bragg

I was born at half past twelve, almost one in the morning
I was born at half past one, almost two in the morning
Now my birthday comes again, I don't know how old I am
Half past one or two or three, almost four in the morning

I was born at half past four, almost five in the morning
I was born at half past six, almost seven in the morning
How old am I, you ask of me? One year younger than I used to be
Half past seven, half past eight, half past nine in the morning

I was born at half past nine, almost ten in the morning
I was born at half past ten, almost eleven in the morning
Today my age is tweedle and twee, I'm prettier than I used to be
Half past eleven, half past eleven, almost twelve in the morning
