When I was young I used to wonder What the fuss was all about
I never had a head for numbers But I tried to work it out
I woke up early on the weekend
To play football for the coach
I never thought about the future
I guess that’s what I miss the most
I’d lie awake in summer dreaming
Of all the girls I hardly knew
Spend all day down at the Grinch house Burying bottles in the dunes
I stared in wide eyed wonder As the parts were handed out And everything had meaning
There were never any doubts
La La’s
I don’t know why we can’t get along
I don’t know where all the time has gone
Now the world is burning slowly And no one seems to give a damn I’ve got the backlash blues
I’ll stick my head right in the sand
Now I just keep from going under Swimming hard against the rip Try my best to keep a balance
I know one day I’m gonna tip
I don’t know why we can’t get along
I don’t know where all the time has gone
Head of memories, life becomes the sea
Walk on
