Once upon a rainy night
I stepped into the cold
All my friends got in the car
And we were on the road
Every time I play it back
Not sure just what we did
No one there to hold us down
It’s great to be a kid

It’s great to be a kid these days
No matter what your friends might say
Cause soon you’ll be out on your own
Never able to come home

Now I’m older and I see
That life is such a blur
One day you’re mister popular
The next you are a nerd
Now I see it and I learn to
Cherish every day
Sometimes when they don’t matter much
You miss ‘em anyway

It’s great to be a kid these days
No matter what your friends might say
Cause soon you’ll be out on your own
Never able to come home
