What Happened? - Youth Killed It

When I was a kid, I used to play with little toy cars

Smash ‘em up, race them round in the dark

Now I’m older I play with big boy cars

But can’t smash them up as it would cost me an arm

When I was younger I used to hate paying for kid Jack

To eat sweets, drink fizzy drinks and that

But now I’m older thats called loans and tax

I earn money just to fucking pay it back

As a kid used to hang in my room

With my friends on my Playstation 2

What happened?

Yeah

Now my friends have got happy families and there’s me

What happened?

Yeah

When I was a kid I used to ride on my 'heelies'

Not a care in the world all good feelies

But now I’m older I have to take on real life stress

And deal with real life feelings

When I was a kid, used to hate going school

Used to hate getting up, brushing my teeth and all

But now I’m older do you know what I’d give to have it back

The care free, scare free, life of kid Jack

As a kid used to hang in my room

With my friends on my Playstation 2

What happened?

Yeah

Now my friends have got happy families and there’s me

What happened?

Yeah

I wish I could go back in time

Take myself away from the future

As a man nothing ever feels right

Every day I feel older than I used to

I wish I spent a little bit more time

Preparing myself for the future

It comes out of nowhere, right?

And drags you down lower than you’re used to

As a kid used to hang in my room

With my friends on my Playstation 2

What happened?

Yeah

Now my friends have got happy families and there’s me

What happened?

Yeah

Don’t really want to be a grown up

But I am now so I guess it’s tough luck

What happened to days

And playing and living in dark days

Guess I’m just living in reality

Coming to terms with partial insanity

Knowing that I’ll never be young again

Knowing that I’ll never be young again
