The Original Mixed Up Kid

[Verse 1]

Do you remember summers on the wasteland?

Lying on our backs and looking at the sky

We could hear the intercity trains, and little children playing close by

Do you remember what I said?

Nothing lasts for long

Everything goes wrong

Sleeping each day and afternoon[?]

Questions, questions, answers unknown

Bicycles and [?]

Girls and always arguing at home

Using unfamiliar phrases and feeling jumbled up inside

The first time that I tried

The original mixed up kid

Thinking about those things we said and did

I'm the original mixed up kid

Situations change, I know that

I don't look or act the samе anymore

And time can fly beforе you know it

More years than you've got fingers for

You'd better stick with fiction books if you're looking for a happy end

We are not even friends

The original mixed up kid

Thinking about those things we said and did

I'm the original mixed up kid

So long ago

Seems like no time at all

I'm the original mixed up kid

The original mixed up kid

Thinking about those things we said and did

I'm the original mixed up kid

The original mixed up kid

Thinking about those things we said and did

I'm the original mixed up kid
