Those were the days
We could kick back
Spittin' some slang
Take a look back
It was a different thing
Those worthy days
Little kids don't fly
But we were spreading our wings
We didn't cry
Stand up after scraping our knees
No one told us
How the world could hold us
Down, lookin' up
Like we were toy soldiers
Little boy, quit groanin'
Little girl, don't grow up
Nobody ever told you how it is for grownups
You'll spend the rest of your life
Still chasin' those dreams
A race you don't need
This is just a tracing of me
I'm not the little tyke
That's used to making up things
Out to ride a bike
And dream of places to be
Those worthy days
Th-Those worthy days
Th-Those worthy days
Those worthy days
Th-Those worthy days
Th-Those worthy days
Those were the days
Scribblin' pictures and diggin'
Get in the lake and go swimmin'
There's so many things to get into
When we were driven
Those worthy days
Video game in our brain
You know that we couldn't contain it
Hideous paintings
That we thought would make us famous
Nobody could hold us
Yeah we were uncontainable
Show ya how we do a double-flip
In the wading pool
Double-dip our cones
Ice cream is sensational
Another week unfolds
Feels so unrelatable
I don't think I've had a feeling like that
Since I was eight or so
Made me feel so much greater
I'm emotion inflatable
Had the greatest of times
And I don't think that it's attainable
Guess it's just another moment
Of life that has been taken from
Those worthy days
Th-Those worthy days
Th-Those worthy days
Those worthy days
Th-Those worthy days
Th-Those worthy days
Those were the days
Those were the days
Those worthy days
Th-Those worthy days
Th-Those worthy days
Those worthy days
Th-Those worthy days
Th-Those worthy days
