When I was Young...

You know it's true.
When I was young,
I wanted to be older,
To be big and strong,
Be extremely better.

I wanted to be a grown up,
I wanted to feel important,
Bed time stinks,
I wanted to stay up!

I must have been mad back then!
I want to be young again,
Avoid all the backaches and headaches,
Far too much stress and pain!

Too much work to do,
Hormones and puberty just don't help! (True)
Don't we all regret saying stuff?
Admit it, it's happened to me and you!
