School Nights

I'm feeling childish

When you draw tattoos on my forearm

Pop bubblegum too loud

We got them preaching that we're hell-bound

But I don't think we are, unless you do

I wanna be a kid with you

Talk slow on a school night

And you can disregard my virgin ears and say what you like

You wanna win me over now?

Impress me like a school fight

And I triple-dog dare you

To pinky-promise that you'll never lie

We light firecrackers in the middle of the street

You hear them yelling at us

But you listen to me

As I pour my voice in your soul

You say, "Goddamn, let's never get old," and I agree

I wanna be a kid with you

Talk slow on a school night

And you can disregard my virgin ears and say what you like

You wanna win me over now?

Impress me like a school fight

And I triple-dog dare you

To pinky-promise that you'll never lie

Make me a ring out of clover flowers

Sit in a teacup, spin for hours

I'm official, I know I'm official

Got a badge to your club and one has initials

You become King Kong, you're King Kong

You grow up, you're so strong, you're so strong

But I wanna stay young

Yeah, I wanna stay young with you

Yeah, I wanna stay young

Yeah, I wanna stay young with you

Wanna stay young

I wanna stay young with you

Wanna stay young

I wanna stay young

I wanna be a kid with you

Talk slow on a school night

And you can disregard my virgin ears and say what you like

You wanna win me over now?

Impress me like a school fight

And I triple-dog dare you

To pinky-promise that you'll never lie
