When you were young

Fellow Blogbhartian Shruthi recalls the young rebel in her.

We were not allowed to go out of the colony gates unsupervised. There was a bar at one end of the road, and a lonely Water Supply Board area on the other. So it was a strict no-no. But once, someone told us that there was construction going on somewhere on our road, and there was a huge mound of sand with CLAY! So shall we go? I went. Without permission. My heart thudded, but a sand mound was too tempting. As I sat there, playing, my luck ran out - my dad , coming back from office, spotted me.

Quick quiz - Can you give me two songs that contain the phrase”When you were young”?

    Deepa - You should’ve read the fine print which said “No googling”. Perhaps it was too fine! Obviously you’re right, although the ones I had in mind were the Killers (and is that a great song or what) and the anthem “live and let die”. Thanks for the reply.

    Lekhni - Er..sure, but which song are you referring to?! I do recall a Bajaj ad with a similar phrase. Thanks anyways for the reply!
