Bear - Dear Reader

100 kites flew in a flock

100 dogs threw up a bark

The wheels and pedals of our bikes they spun

In mechanic salute to the winter sun

Pasted poorly above like a glittery piece of tinfoil

Don’t you dare fall down

If I’m this tired while having fun

It makes me worried that something’s wrong

How much longer will I be young

So much stuff that I haven’t done

On the soggy streets of Budapest

On an escape mission from the West

We met the remnants of the Welsh invasion

It took all our wit and bravery

And we had to stop for elevenses

So eventually we chose to embrace them

If I’m this tired while having fun

It makes me worried that something’s wrong

How much longer will I be young

So much stuff that I haven’t done

If I’m this tired while having fun

It makes me worried that something’s wrong

How much longer will I be young

In another bar, on another street

But it really might as well not be

We laugh and toast away the nighttime hours

And at 6 a.m., when I go to sleep

All the birds are scowling in at me

And I beg them in their mercy to forgive us

I’m this tired while having fun

How much longer will I be young
