Alexander Rybak - Kid lyrics

Every time I try to satisfy
Every person and every need
I end up pretending I’m someone else
And that someone, it ain’t me

They say it’s time for you to grow up
Cause you can’t go on like this
Just get a life like everyone else
You can’t stay forever a kid

But I don’t wanna grow up
Sh!t is perfect the way it is
Don’t wanna be like everyone else
So I’ll stay forever a kid

Me and my friends got our own little family
And we don’t care for the rules too much
Me and my friends, we, get into all kind of sh!t
And some people can’t handle us

They can’t stand how I play by my own rules
They see red when I’m doin my old tunes
Somebody told me, act your own age fool
But, I forgot my own age, sir

And when I tryna’ fit in with society
People say somethings wrong with me
I guess the world ain’t what it used to be
So I’ll stay in my fantasy

They say it’s time for you to grow up
Cause you can’t go on like this
Just get a life like everyone else
You can’t stay forever a kid

But I don’t wanna grow up
Sh!t is perfect the way it is
Don’t wanna be like everyone else
So I’ll stay forever a kid

I need nobody
To teach me who to be
So if you tell me I gotta grow up
I just gotta disagree

And I need nobody
To tell me what to do
Cause life is much better
From a childish point of view

Na na na na na na

Every time I try to satisfy
Every person and every need
I end up pretending I’m someone else
And that someone, it ain’t me

They say, it’s time for you to grow up
Cause you can’t go on like this
Just get a life like everyone else
You can’t stay forever a kid

But I don’t wanna grow up
Sh!t is perfect the way it is
Don’t wanna be like everyone else
So I’ll stay forever a kid
