Didn't think much of growing up when I was young
I thought life was a playground, age of monkey bars
Swinging to each one, when you got to the end
You just fall off, then start again
Life would spin you around like a roundabout
Eating ice-cream 'til all the ice-cream's out
I wanna be like that, we should all be young
Instead of carrying the weight of the world
Play a game of tag or maybe football
Kiss with the ladies who are beautiful
And not a care in the world but we love and care for our friends
When we play mum and dad let the game never end
And when the game's over let's play again
Play hide-and-seek, count to a 110
Life on this earth would never be the same
We wouldn't have to worry 'bout money
No money
No pain
People say we act too young
But we know that we're just having fun
Ignoring all the wrongs of society
Forget about the stress and anxiety
People say we need to act older
But with age the world only gets colder
Enjoy life cause' you only get one
Why rush? We wanna stay young
What ya wanna do?
I wanna stay young
What ya wanna do?
I wanna stay young
What ya wanna do?
I wanna stay young
Stay young! Stay young!
The fields full the green the sun is shining down
Full of kids in football kits, running around
Side tackling each other just playing about
But we wouldn't get hurt so nobody would shout
But nowadays, there's no one in the park
Only teenagers chat in their rooms in the dark
Laying in their bed, rain outside
Storms are raging, lightning in the sky
When I was young I remember the skies blue
Now all I see in the world is people feeling blue
It's time to flip the world around, make it a better place
I don't want a world of strangers, snap back and take our place
It ain't right, we're missing out on so much
Back to when we used to play stuck in the mud
But hope ain't lost, I have you by my side
Let's make this life a crazy rollercoaster ride
People say we act too young
But we know that we're just having fun
Ignoring all the wrongs of society
Forget about the stress and anxiety
People say we need to act older
But with age the world only gets colder
Enjoy life cause' you only get one
Why rush? We wanna stay young
What ya wanna do?
I wanna stay young
What ya wanna do?
I wanna stay young
What ya wanna do?
I wanna stay young
Stay young! Stay young!
Ooh
People say we act too young
But we know that we're just having fun
Ignoring all the wrongs of society
Forget about the stress and anxiety
People say we need to act older
But with age the world only gets colder
Enjoy life cause' you only get one
Why rush? We wanna stay young
What ya wanna do?
Ignoring all the wrongs of society (yeah)
What ya wanna do?
People say we need to act older (older)
What ya wanna do?
Enjoy your life cause' you only get one
Why rush? We wanna stay young
