Kids Will Be Kids
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When I was a kid, with everything I did
I can't believe that I'm alive and not six feet under ground
Cuz when I was a child I was living on the wild
and I can't believe that I'm still around
Let the kids make up their minds and do what they do best
walk along the streets of broken hearts and lonelyness
crimson eyes define the pain that words cannot explain
tears will fall like rain
Kids are gonna fuck it up and learn from their mistake
and if I had a buck a time a fortune I could make
we can all pretend that we were not the same
but afterall this life is just a game
-Chorus-
When I was a kid, with everything I did
I can't believe that I'm alive and not six feet under ground
Cuz when I was a child I was living on the wild
and I can't believe that I'm still around
I was only 17 and skippin' out of school
authority would treat me like an adolescent fool
lips are meant for kissin' ass and breakin' down the wall
to rise above it all
-Chorus-
I can see the parents as their children walk the line
I've heard the voice of repremand and now I'm doin' fine
I'd love to say I told you so like you once said to me
and we will be together in the end
as long as there's redemption to defend
-Chorus-
