The Wonder Years
Before the war, before the lies
Before my brother left that night, yeah
I was just a kid
I was singing la la la la la la la la
Shit was simple just like la la
La la la la la la
Yeah, before I grasped that people died
Before I saw my sister cry, yeah
I was just a kid
I was singing la la la la la la la la
Shit was simple just like la la
La la la la la la
So take me back to the
Days when I was younger
All this bullshit is overrated
Back to the days
Pour some shots out with my people
And we gon' sing like la la la la la la la la
At our local bar like la la la la la la la la
Before the world turned gray and dull
Before we both fell out of love
We were just kids
We were singing la la la la la la la la
Love was simple just like la la
La la la la la la
Oh, before they put our dreams in jail
Before we lost our fairy tales, oh
We were just kids
We were singing la la la la la la la la
Love was simple just like la la
La la la la la
So take me back to the
Days when I was younger
All this bullshit is overrated
Back to the days
Pour some shots out with my people
And we gon' sing like la la la la la la la la
At our local bar like la la la la la la la la
They say my dream is unreal
I'm forgettin' how the sun feels
I'm forgettin' how love heals
And my niece is blowing bubbles in the yard
Economy is down, too
They're lying on the damn news
People murdering for damn shoes
And my niece is blowing bubbles in the yard
Think about it
My niece is blowing bubbles in the yard
My niece is blowing bubbles in the yard
Think about it, niece is blowin'
Bubbles in the yard, yeah
So take me back to the
Days when I was younger
All this bullshit is overrated
Back to the days
Pour some shots out with my people
And we gon' sing like la la la la la la la la
At our local bar like la la la la la la la la
