The Kids Are Alright Lyrics by EBEN

Honeydew

2020

[Verse 1]
I wonder what the world before you looked like
I guess we'll never know (Yeah)
Losin' our minds, livin' on borrowed time
But at least we got our phones

[Pre-Chorus]
You tell me not to do as you do but to do as you say
Sayin' it's no use with the youth these days
All these thoughts and prayers feelin' so cliche
You got us here

[Chorus]
You set fire to the house
Tucked us in with a kiss goodnight
Cut the brakes to the car
Said, "Get in, you're learnin' to drive"
Tied our hands behind our backs
Called it a fair fight, it's fine
We're fine
The kids are alright (The kids are alright, the kids are alright, the kids are alright, the kids are alright)

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh
The kids are alright (The kids are alright)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
The kids are alright

[Verse 2]
We'll build a tower with the bricks that you threw
Oh, stack them, one by one (Yeah)
Climb to the top and enjoy the view
You'll never see it, you’ll be gone

[Pre-Chorus]
You tell me not to do as you do but to do as you say
Sayin' it’s no use with the youth these days
All these thoughts and prayers feelin' so cliche
You got us here

[Chorus]
You set fire to the house
Tucked us in with a kiss goodnight
Cut the brakes to the car
Said, "Get in, you're learnin' to drive"
Tied our hands behind our backs
Called it a fair fight, it's fine (It's fine)
We're fine (We're fine)
The kids are alright (The kids are alright, the kids are alright, the kids are alright, the kids are alright)

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh
The kids are alright (The kids are alright)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
The kids are alright

[Bridge]
You grow up and gave up
Then fucked up, said, “Tough luck”
Yeah, you grow up and gave up
Then fucked up, said, “Tough luck”
Yeah, you

[Chorus]
You set fire to the house
Tucked us in with a kiss goodnight
Cut the brakes to the car
Said, "Get in, you're learnin' to drive"
Tied our hands behind our backs
Called it a fair fight, it's fine (It's fine)
We're fine (We're fine)
The kids are alright (The kids are alright, the kids are alright, the kids are alright, the kids are alright)
