Future Kids |
When I was a kid, I made a book |
Planning out how my future would look |
I drew in pictures of houses with views |
Two swings in the backyard, one pink and one blue |
Now that I’m older I wish I could see |
A world where that still made sense to me |
'Cause if my future kids end up like me |
They won’t get to sleep earlier than three |
They’ll be thinking 'bout how they can be |
Better than they are, taking it too far |
Trying to change the things I love the most about them |
And I don’t think I could ever stand to see that happen, no |
I was too young when I picked out their names |
And wrote them at the top of every page |
'Cause I don’t know I would grow up to hate |
The way that I look in my size and my shape |
I wish I could make sure that they never see |
Themselves in the same way that I see me |
'Cause if my future kids end up like me |
They won’t get to sleep earlier than three |
They’ll be thinking 'bout how they can be |
Better than they are, taking it too far |
Trying to change the things I love the most about them |
And I don’t think I could ever stand to see that happen, no |
I’ll keep the book in a safe place |
'Cause I’m not quite ready to throw it away |
'Cause if my future kids end up like me |
They won’t get to sleep earlier than three |
They’ll be thinking 'bout how they can be |
Better than they are, taking it too far |
Trying to change the things I love the most about them |
And I don’t think I could ever stand to see that happen, no |
