you’ve got this kid Lyrics by Lydia May

2024

[Verse]
Billy goes to the corner shop every Saturday afternoon
He has to stand on tippy toes to see the menu
His mum tells him not to worry he′ll grow but he's sceptical
Cos the lads on the field have been picking on him
Cos he can′t catch the ball
He's been thinking bout getting into swimming, you don't have to run
Tells his mate who pulls a face says ′that doesn't sound fun'
So standing at the corner shop Billy thinks a little more
Decides he doesn't really feel like dying right now
And he'll take a chocolate swirl
[Verse]
Jenny loves the ballet but is the tallest in her class
She feels real free but worries that she looks like a giraffe
Teach tells her she′s gong strong and she should see this through
But one day she comes back home and yells "to hell with my tutu"
[Pre Chorus]
But she's got too much energy
Oh anyone can see
She takes up running instead but it tangles her knees
Curses life isn't fair
Why is the things we love always bringing us despair
[Chorus]
Don't give up that easy the stars in you
Keep on playing make pretend and it might come true
There's bombs going off on screens
What about those dreams are we listening
Keep on running while you can forget the ones who say you can′t
You can do anything
You′ve got this kid
[Verse]
Billy grows up and hits the books and Jenny follows too
There's no running around in grey school suits
They′re thinking about getting into real estate
Finance could be stable too
And that's all I know
Of the story I wrote
Ten years ago
Except the closing line
[Pre Chorus]
Don't be like jenny and lose out on the stage
Billy would′ve caught the ball if he'd not worried bout his mates
I wanna reach the moon to see the world
I smiled at the dreamer I was a girl
Though we ain't giving up I promised her
[Chorus]
Don't give up that easy the stars in you
Keep on playing make pretend and it might come true
There's bombs going off on screens
What about those dreams are we listening
Keep on running while you can forget the ones who say you can′t
You can do anything
You′ve got this kid
You've got this kid
You′ve got this kid
