Kid Lyrics by Mark Deck

You

2015

[Verse 1]
Why the rush
Why don't you slow before it all breaks down
You will spend the rest of your life
Being a grown-up
So why don't you take the time
And just be a kid

[Pre-Chorus]
Twelve years old when you had your first cigarette
Then move on to thirteen when you got drunk for the first time
Twelve years old when you had your first cigarette
Then move on to thirteen when you got drunk for the first time

[Chorus]
You will spend the rest of your life
Being a grown-up (grown-up)
So just take the timе that you got
Just be a kid, act your age
You will spend thе rest of your life
Being a grown-up (grown-up)
So just take the time that you got
Just be a kid, act your age

[Verse 2]
Will every chapter
Of this book we call life
And their ups and downs
But there is no point
In trying to write the end
When you just began

[Pre-Chorus]
Twelve years old when you had your first break-up
Then move on to thirteen when you got high for the first time
Twelve years old when you had your first break-up
Then move on to thirteen when you got high for the first time

[Chorus]
You will spend the rest of your life
Being a grown-up (grown-up)
So just take the time that you got
Just be a kid, act your age
You will spend the rest of your life
Being a grown-up (grown-up)
So just take the time that you got
Just be a kid, act your age

You will spend the rest of your life
Being a grown-up (grown-up)
So just take the time that you got
Just be a kid, act your age
You will spend the rest of your life
Being a grown-up (grown-up)
So just take the time that you got
Just be a kid, act your age

You will spend the rest of your life
Being a grown-up (grown-up)
So just take the time that you got
Just be a kid, act your age
You will spend the rest of your life
Being a grown-up
