The Wonder Years

Before the war, before the lies

Before my brother left that night, yeah

I was just a kid

I was singin' 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 singin' 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 old

Before we both fell out of love, yeah

We were just kids

We were singin' la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Love was simple just like la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Before they put our dreams in jail

Before we lost our fairytales, oh

We were just kids

We were singin' la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Love 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

They say my dream is unreal

I'm forgettin' how the sun feels

I'm forgettin' how love heals

And my niece is blowin' bubbles in the yard

Economy is down too

They're lyin' on the damn news

People murderin' for damn shoes

And my niece is blowin' bubbles in the yard

Think about it

My niece is blowin' bubbles in the yard

My niece is blowin' 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
