You've come of age, you've gotten far
And nothing much surprises you
You see the boys explore the yards
Just like you always did with the other kids
And it used to be so cool
A lightning strike out of the blue
And you didn't have a clue
'Cause all of it was new
Hovering seagulls
Removable houses
Cracks on the sidewalk
Sounds from down under
Mechanical creatures
Magical science
Dance to a new day
Embrace all you see and hear
You've overcome the confusion
And things fall into place at a steady pace
And it used to be so cool
Scary shadows in a dark room
And you never really knew
'Cause all of it was new
Used to be so cool
