Yeah Bars and melody Check it out Didn't think much of growing up when I was young I thought life was a playground, age of monkey bars Swinging to each one, when you got to the end You just fall off, then start again
Life will spin you around like a roundabout Eating ice-cream til all the ice-cream's out I wanna be like that, we should all be young Instead of carrying the weight of the world Play a game of tag or maybe football
Kisses with the ladies who are beautiful And not a care in the world but we love and care for our friends When we play mum and dad let the game never end And when the game's over let's play again Play hide-and-seek, count to a hundred and ten Life on this earth would never be the same We wouldn't have to worry about money No money no pain
People say we act too young But we know that we're just having fun Ignoring all the wrongs of society Forget about the stress and anxiety People say we need to act older But we face the world only gets colder Enjoy life cause' you only get one Why rush? We wanna stay young
(Leondre:) whatcha wanna do? (Charlie:) we wanna stay young (Leondre:) whatcha wanna do? (Charlie:) we wanna stay young (Leondre:) whatcha wanna do? (Charlie:) we wanna stay young! (Both:) stay young! Stay young! (Leondre:) The fields full the greenest when they're shining down
Full of kids with football kits, running around Side tackling each other just playing about But we wouldn't get hurt so nobody would shout But nowadays, there's no one in the park Only teenagers chat in their rooms in the dark Laying in their bed, rain outside Storms are raging, lightning in the sky When I was young I remember the skies blue
Now all I see in the world is people feeling blue It's time to flip the world around, make it a better place I don't want a world of strangers snap back and take our place It ain't right, we're missing out on so much Back to when we used to play stuck in the mud But hope ain't lost, I have you by my side Let's make this life a crazy rollercoaster ride
People say we act too young But we know that we're just having fun Ignoring all the wrongs of society Forget about the stress and anxiety People say we need to act older But we face the world only gets colder Enjoy life cause' you only get one Why rush? We wanna stay young
