When You're Young Lyrics

Life is timeless, days are long when you're young
You used to fall in love with everyone
Any guitar and any bass drum

Life is a drink and you get drunk when you're young
Life is new and there's things to be done
You can't wait to be grown up
Acceptance into the capital world

You pull on some weed, then you pull on someone when you're young
But you find out life isn't like that
It's so hard to comprehend

Why you set up your dreams to have them smashed in the end
But you don't mind you've got time on your side
And they're never gonna make you stand in line
You're just waiting for the right time

You're fearless and brave, you can't be stopped when you're young You swear you're never ever gonna work for someone
No corporations for the new age sons
Tears of rage roll down your face, but still you say, it's fun
And you find out life isn't like that it's so hard to understand

Why the world is your oyster but your future's a clam
It's got you in its grip before you're born
It's done with the use of a dice and a board
They let you think you're king but you're really a pawn

You're fearless and brave, you can't be stopped when you're young
You used to fall in love with everyone
Any guitar and any bass drum
