Mike McGovern, Birksmith - Young Lyrics

Hoppin' fences
Runnin' round
And all that
Raisin' hell
Before the parents call back
If I ain't home in seven minutes
They'll be whoppin' my ass
My ass
Because
It's a school night
Lights gotta be out by ten
But I ain't tired at all so
I gotta pretend
I'm thinking' bout telling the new girl
That I gotta crush
And maybe I can show her around
Why did we rush to grow up
When we were young
We were so worried about our futures
When we were young
When we were young
(We were young, when we were)
When we were young
(When we were)
I remember trying to grow up
Way to fast
Way to fast
My mind was on the future but now I
Just live in the past
Riding bikes to the fort was a daily routine
Standing up on the pegs just
Feeling the breeze
(The breeze)
I should probably slow down before I
Run off the tracks
(The tracks)
Yeah
Why did we rush to grow up
When we were young
Knowing that what we had is all we'd ever want
When we were young
We didn't listen to the grown no
We just kept on growing
When we were young

Hoppin' fences
Runnin' round
And all that
Raisin' hell
Before the parents call back
If I ain't home in seven minutes
They'll be whoppin' my ass
My ass
Because
It's a school night
Lights gotta be out by ten
But I ain't tired at all so
I gotta pretend
I'm thinking' bout telling the new girl
That I gotta crush
And maybe I can show her around
Why did we rush to grow up
When we were young
We were so worried about our futures
When we were young
When we were young
(We were young, when we were)
When we were young
(When we were)
I remember trying to grow up
Way to fast
Way to fast
My mind was on the future but now I
Just live in the past
Riding bikes to the fort was a daily routine
Standing up on the pegs just
Feeling the breeze
(The breeze)
I should probably slow down before I
Run off the tracks
(The tracks)
Yeah
Why did we rush to grow up
When we were young
Knowing that what we had is all we'd ever want
When we were young
We didn't listen to the grown no
We just kept on growing
When we were young
