The Smith Street Band Kids Lyrics


Kids by The Smith Street Band

[Verse 1]
If there's one thing that I've learnt
It's that not all bad decisions turn out bad
Well, at least not yet, 'cause in sheds like these I've shivered
Through some of the best times of my life
And I'm not dead yet, there's nothing as beautiful
As the scramble to the front row of a few
Enough people to keep your arms warm
But still not obstruct your view of the road-weary wanderers
With the really stoned drummer throwing sweat and beers
With the city that they're playing in's name
On the outside of the tin

[Verse 2]
And she stared straight into his soul on the broken step
He'd stared straight into everyone's with his hair between his lips
And everything played out before me like the most obvious story
Of bravado and libido, some buzz word, some dead hero
I hope I can keep doing this, I'll keep staying off the piss
Well, at least before we play, 'cause I remember them that way
I'm running from misheard conversations
Half-imagined explanations, my own undying frustration
And the feeling that there's something better than this

[Chorus]
And I know you feel it too
And we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun
And we don't mean nothing to no one
And I know you feel it too
And we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun
And we don't mean nothing to no one

[Verse 3]
And who the fuck do I think I am
To stand here and scream just like I've got some kind of plan?
And even if I did
I wouldn't have a single good thing to say about it
'Cause all that's in my head is recycled rhetoric
And smart things my parents have said
Nothing more and nothing less, I never once made any sense
Can't sit still long enough to let my hands rest
Speak open sounds at open sores and hope and the ground
And know what people think I am
And what I am isn't the same thing
Wake every day and live a lifestyle lined with dying
And the overriding feeling there's something better than this

[Chorus]
And I know you feel it too
And we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun
And we don't mean nothing to no one
And I know you feel it too
And we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun
And we don't mean nothing to no one

[Bridge]
And I will let nothing age me
No matter how much I'm told I have changed, changed, changed
And I will let nothing age me
No matter how much I'm told I have changed, changed, changed

[Chorus]
And I know you feel it too
And we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun
And we don't mean nothing to no one
And I know you feel it too
And we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun
And we don't mean nothing to no one
And I know you feel it too
And we grow stronger when we move
We're just kids staring at the sun
And we don't mean nothing to no one
