Young and Stupid

Time is such a funny friend, we both just wont sit still
And the seventeen year old in me still wants a thrill
When I'm higher than a kite nothing good will end
To be young and stupid again

Steely eyes and linen sheets, counting my mistakes
Finding out that mixing red and white don't make rosé
While the well-to-do and thieves both play me like a violin
To be young and stupid again

Clicked my heels a thousand times but Kansas, is so far away
The butterflies have all but flown, mama asks if I'm here to stay
There's no sympathy for dreamers, dreaming things that will never last
Weren't we all a little like that?

Clicked my heels a thousand times but Kansas, is so far away
The butterflies have all flown, never know if I'm here to stay
Technicolor fades to grey trying to hold on to the past
Weren't we all a little like that?

And in twenty years I'll walk back down the road I came
Chasing my tail but finding I'm the one that got away
I'm human after all, still wild now and then
To be young and stupid again
To be young and stupid again
Oh, to be young...
