Johnny
It's time to get out of bed
It's half past eight, you're gonna be late
It's not the voices in your head
Oh, Johnny
Not a care in the world
No bills to pay
Just games to play
And he doesn't know much about girls
I would come and call for you
We would go anywhere
We didn't need any reasons
Or incentives to care
Knew nothing about the economy
Voting or bureaucracy
No shirt and ties to suffocate our lives
It was different games that we were playing
Do you recall?
When we'd sit on the walls and we'd talk in the backstreet
Against the walls
We were kicking the balls
We had the world at our feet
Do you recall?
When we'd sit on the walls and talk in the backstreet
Now we're so tall
Life's too complicated, man
I don't want to be
I don't want to be
I don't want to be
Grown up anymore
This ain't what they promised me at school
When they told me to follow all the rules
I'm still in the class with the same old fools
Now I've just turned about twenty three
Still don't know what I want to be
If you look back then you might see
I would come and call for you
We would go anywhere
We didn't need any reasons
Or incentives to care
We knew nothing about the economy
Voting or bureaucracy
No shirt and ties to suffocate our lives
It was different games that we were playing
Do you recall
When we'd sit on the walls and talk in the backstreet
Against the walls
We were kicking the balls
We had the world at our feet
Do you recall
When we'd sit on the walls and talk in the backstreet
Now we're so tall
Life's too complicated, man
I don't want to be
I don't want to be
I don't want to be
I don't want to be grown up anymore
Do you recall?
When we'd sit on the walls and talk in the backstreet
Against the walls
We were kicking the balls
We had the world at our feet
Do you recall?
When we'd sit on the walls and talk in the backstreet
Now we're so tall
Life's too complicated, man
I don't want to be
I don't want to be
I don't want to be
I don't want to be
Oh no, it's not for me
I don't want to be
I don't want to be
I don't want to be grown up anymore
Grown up anymore
Oh, no no
Do you recall?
When we'd sit on the walls and talk in the backstreet
Against the walls
We were kicking the balls
We had the world at our feet
Do you recall?
Do you recall?
