Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's unbelievable, this is as good as it gets
It's unbelievable, don't know what's gonna happen next
It's unbelievable, you haven't seen nothing yet
It's unbelievable, it's unbelievable
[Verse 2]
When I was a kid, I saved up all my dough, so I could buy C-3PO
Put Mentos in my Diet Coke in the backseat of the bus
[Verse 3]
When I was a kid, I ate SpaghettiOs, played laser tag and G.I. Joe's
And if you vowed no girls allowed, then you could join the club
[Verse 4]
When I was a kid, I spend my Saturdays blowin' on Nintendo games
The newest thing was Lion King, and I could feel the love
[Verse 5]
It's unbelievable, this is as good as it gets
It's unbelievable, don't know what's gonna happen next
It's unbelievable, you haven't seen nothing yet
It's unbelievable, it's unbelievable
[Verse 6]
When I was a kid, I dreamed of Power Wheels
Stayed up late watchin' action films
And I won't lie, my friends and I were 2 Legit 2 Quit
[Verse 7]
When I was a kid, I lived for climbing trees, ate Dr. Pepper jelly beans
My favorite part of Jurassic Park was how real the raptors looked
[Verse 8]
When I was a kid, I still had VHS, watched Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff
Zack Morris on the first cellphone, it was off the hook
[Verse 9]
It's unbelievable, this is as good as it gets
It's unbelievable, don't know what's gonna happen next
It's unbelievable, you haven't seen nothing yet
It's unbelievable, it's unbelievable
[Verse 10]
Gak, pogs and Floam and Home Alone
Berenstain Bears and beanbag chairs
My L.A. Looks and Goosebumps books
Oh, Etch A Sketch, what happens next?
[Verse 11]
Grape Juicy Juice and Dr. Seuss
Piggyback rides and Slip 'N Slides
McDonald's fries, those were the best
What happens next?
[Verse 12]
It's unbelievable, this is as good as it gets
It's unbelievable, don't know what's gonna happen next
It's unbelievable, you haven't seen nothing yet
It's unbelievable, those were the days, oh
[Verse 13]
It's unbelievable when I think back I'm amazed
It's unbelievable 'cause, baby, those were the days
It's unbelievable, it ruled in so many ways
It's unbelievable, it's unbelievable
[Verse 14]
Oh, I'm so amazed
Those were the days
[Verse 15]
Na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na, na
