Lyrics

WE ARE YOUNG

VERSE1:

I woke up with my hair matted to the side of my head.
Barely could see, that's why I fell out of bed.
Mom and Dad in my ear, son you need to get up,
You're an hour late to school, and the teacher's fed up.
Another day in school detention, and they'll kick you out.
You think I really give a damn, shit I'll set at the house,
Hungover from last night, snuck in about 4.
Getting high next door, getting head from a whore.
Half the time I skip school, it was all in my plan.
Like Will Smith says, "Parents just don't understand.."
My father told me, can't believe that I was his,
He tell me Pat, why the hell you gotta do this shit.


CHORUS:

Because, We are young, and we are free
Fuck the world, it's just you and me.
Mow the lawn, take out the trash,
Mom and Dad both can kiss my ass.
Just now woke up, I'm tired as fuck,
Light the blunt and then smoke it up.
Because, We are young, and we are free,
Fuck the world, it's just you and me.

VERSE2:

Every day they yell at me, look I said I fucking heard you,
I understand that I'm not a man, But, I don't need a fucking curfew.
9 o'clock seriously, I'm 16 years old,
Harold's mom and dad treat him just like he was grown.
I don't want them over here, because you'll just be mean.
Plus, they'll fuck up my room, and then guess who has to clean.
You don't understand you're lame, they don't want to hear your music,
Yeah, I've heard it all before and I don't want to hear excuses.
Boot Scootin' Boogie and that one called Chattahoochee,
If Amanda hears that shit, I'll probably never get no coochee.
But, they never understand, they were once young too.
And they were begging their parents for stupid shit like I do.

CHORUS:

VERSE3:

Smoking weed in the closet, just another afternoon,
If you dealt with what I did, you'd probably stay high too.
Up at 6 A.M. waiting on the school bus.
Couldn't get a car because my grades were low as fuck.
My math teacher sucked me up when I was just a young man,
Told me sit up on the desk and drop my baggy pants.
Mommy said I'm not a man, I should just be a kid,
But mommy doesn't understand the things this teacher did.
I never told my mom the truth, if my dad ever knew,
He'd probably say congratulations, My mom would lock me in the room.
So, in closing I'd like to say, every kid who's young and safe,
Live a little, love a lot, and fuck seven times a day.


CHORUS:
