Just Kids |
| 'Cause it was Bell Biv DeVoe, playing on my radio |
| And I had Wu-Tang Clan living in my stereo |
| Mama said we’re 6th generation Oregonians |
| I was rocking in Jordans with reflector tongues |
| Two kids with wet cement living down in their souls |
| They say what gets caught when you’re young stays there when you’re old |
| So misunderstood they say you’re up to no good |
| And now we’re trying our best to start it over again |
| If I’d had met you at the playground |
| Before a hand could tear your world down |
| Before I slammed down the door and |
| You said I’m just like my old man |
| Before I put you in those boxes |
| And we learned how to disagree |
| And how your family is a rocket |
| That blows up in infidelity |
| For crying out loud I wanna know |
| How the waves keep on crashing down the doors |
| Feel the weight of the world and they keep on bringing more |
| If it’s just you and me on the floor |
| Go grab your coat and I’ll drive us home |
| Like we were just kids |
| Just, j-j-just kids |
| J-j-just kids, just, just kids |
| Like we were just kids |
| Just kids, j-j-just kids |
| J-j-just kids, j-j-just kids |
| Bob Marley was painted on my high-school walls |
| But I just disappeared into the darkroom hall |
| Never thought I’d ever make it quite this far |
| Teacher put up my photographs, say «son you’ll be a star» |
| It was smoking mirrors, running down through my veins |
| I kept on running downtown, running from God’s grace |
| Every morning I’d climb back through, those window panes |
| And try my best to ride it out over instrumental tapes |
| If I’d had met you at the playground |
| Before a hand could tear your world down |
| Before I slammed down the door and |
| You said I’m just like my old man |
| Before I put you in those boxes |
| And we learned how to disagree |
| And how your family is a rocket |
| That blows up in infidelity |
| For crying out loud I wanna know |
| How the waves keep on crashing down the doors |
| Feel the weight of the world and they keep on bringing more |
| If it’s just you and me on the floor |
| Go back and come in, I’ll drive us home |
| Like we were just kids |
| Just, j-j-just kids |
| J-j-just kids, just, just kids |
| Like we were just kids |
| Just kids, j-j-just kids |
| J-j-just kids, j-j-just kids |
| I can feel it in the way we try |
| I can feel it in the way we fight |
| We’re standing side by side |
| Like we were just kids |
