i’m a kid
[Verse 1]
I’m a kid
In a grown-up body
I was put here by someone
Maybe God
Moved up to the big city to find a job
And it sucks
But it pays for things I like to do
’Cause I’m a kid

[Verse 2]
I’m a kid
In my own apartment
Makin’ all my own decisions, goals, and dreams
Trying to healthy on a can of beans
The baked kind they're the best kind
And now I’m homesick
Oh yes, I’m a kid

[Chorus]
I think about my mom and dad
Every fight we ever had
Wishin’ I could wipe it all away
I would say let’s talk it through
I’m really proud of you too
At the end of the day
It’s their first time at this life too
[Verse 3]
I’m a kid (I’m a kid)
And I have a dog
He’s really small and funny but he doesn’t eat
Sometimes he doesn’t wanna go outside
Or down the street
And I don’t know what to do
’Cause he relies on me
But I’m a kid

[Verse 4]
I’m a kid
And I’m 31
And my body clock is tickin’
Better keep havin’ fun (Keep havin’ fun)
’Cause soon enough my dog won’t be the only one
That I need to keep alive and I am terrified
Because I’m still a kid

[Chorus]
I think about my mom and dad
The life I never knew they had
And if we met back then, would we be friends?
Crying in the pub from noon over boyfriend #22
They'd say in the end
It’s your first time at this life
[Bridge]
And even when I’m 50
I’ll still think I’m 15
Panicking about the places I have never been
Thinkin’ of the ways I haven’t seized the day
’Cause it’s my first time here
But also my last time here
So what the f- f-
I’m just a kid (Kid)
Oh I’m just a kid
Oh I’m just a kid (Kid)
Oh I’m just a kid
(Kid) Oh, oh
Oh I’m just a kid (Kid)
I’ll never be a kid
Oh I’ll never be a kid again

[Chorus]
I think about my mom and dad
All the time I wish we had
To sit and do nothing every day
But that’s just not how living goes
If you’re lucky you will know
That there is a way
At the end of the day
Everything is OK
You’re still a kid
