V1
When I was a child,
My street was my world,
Its no surprise
when I was young
I led a sheltered life
but then I stepped outside
My little world and..
V2
My innocence was stripped away
Outside my door
a leathal world awaited me
Filled with haterid
and hypocracy....
chorus
Now I wanna be a kid again
In those summers with the girls
with friends calling round with friends
am I asking much too much?
You whine your life is tough
I dont really want to know.
cause Wise, age, grace are fine,
but I want something else.
V3
Now with Wedding bells A ringing.
not sure I wanna know.
you get into these things,
then you cant get out,
and dont have the nerve to go.
V4
I'd learn from my mistakes,.
as if i'd really want to know
it seems life rushed by at a rate of noughts
just more than I could grow.
chorus x3
And I wanna be a kid again
In those summers with the girls
with friends calling round with friends
am I asking much too much?
You whine your life is tough
I dont really want to know.
cause Wise, age, grace are fine,
but I want something else.
"age before beauty"
(Chorus repeats with extra 3 bars)
Chorus.
last chorus: (final song chorus out)
I just wanna be a kid again,
In those summers with the girls.
With friends, hanging round with friends,
am I asking, much, too, much?
You think your life is tough,
and you think that I dont know.
Because Wise, age, grace are fine,
while I want something else.
