Story Behind The Song
I wrote this song after I graduated from college. I reached a crossroads of not knowing what to do with my life, and surprisingly, everyone seemed jealous.

Lyrics
Verse 1:
You?ve been acting real grown up lately
Singing songs you will forbid
And now your dressed and you woke up stately
Bringing out your best lids yes
Chorus:
We wish were kids
In modern places where we still live
We said we wish were kids
In sovereign spaces where we still hid
We said we wish we were kidding around
Underground to be the talk of the town
Yes we were kidding underground to be the talk of the town
Verse 2:
And now all of the home times got you
Submitting your bids
What with all of your free time do you
Do you dream that you could be
Chorus2:
We wish were kids
In modern places where we still live
We said we wish were kids
In sovereign spaces where we still hid
We said we wish we were kidding around
Underground to be the talk of the town
Yes we were kidding ?till we found another permanent ground
We wish we were kids
With too much rugburn on our eyelids
We wish we were kids
With too much time left where we still live
We wish we were?.
Verse 3:
You?ve been acting real grown up lately
And lately I hope I?ll do the same
Now your dressed and you woke up stately
Do you dream that you could be?
We wish we were?
Final Chorus:
We wish were kids
In modern places where we still live
We said we wish were kids
In sovereign spaces where we still hid
We said we wish we were kidding around
Underground to be the talk of the town
