Younger Years

Appearing On:
The Wanting

Lyrics:

In our younger years
When we were kids
We never asked for answers
We didn’t give a shit

In our younger years
We would drive
Out in search of honey
We never feared the hive

Go.
What do you wanna be when you grow up?

Chorus-
What do ya want to be when you grow up?
I don’t know. I don’t know.
You wanna swig from the bottle or sip the cup?
I don’t know. I don’t know.
Folks say you wanna be an astronaut.
I don’t know. I don’t know.
You think you wanna help the world or not?
I don’t know.

In our younger years
We would burn
Every ounce of karma
We never seemed to learn

In our younger years
We’d get high
Challenge those in charge
Make ’em look us in the eye
Go.

Chorus
What do you wanna be when you grow up?!

In our later years
We got old
We held on to rust
That we mistook for gold
In our younger years
We had it made
We’d do it all again
Exactly the same way
Go.
What do you wanna be when you grow up?!
Chorus

You don’t have to worry if you don’t get old
Don’t get old. Don’t get old.
You don’t have to worry if you don’t get old.
Don’t get old. Don’t get old.
You don’t have to worry if you don’t get old
Don’t get old. Don’t get old.
You don’t have to worry if you don’t get old.
DON’T. GET. OLD.
