When I was child, I always wanted a portable television.
And now-a-days a TV is the last thing on my mind.
Other things seem so much more important, like nuclear fission.
All the while I’m sitting here on the side of the street, and turning a blind eye.

This is a song for someone who acts older than they should.
In the meantime, I’m just sitting here feeling kinda good.

Prada shoes and kangaroos were something that I didn’t know about.
There were velcro volcanoes and jalapeno pockets I wished I would send
I was an iceberg burglar, whatever that means. I would scream and shout and count
Today, I hear so many sad stories and I only wish they weren’t being told by my friends

This is a song for someone who acts older than they should.
In the meantime, I’m just sitting here feeling kinda good.

As the older get colder, if you know what I mean, the younger eat thunderous booty machines
We’ll all grow up one day I just don’t know when, but I hope that that one day is close to the end
The power flickers as the flower pickers, put down their baskets and get back to their scenes
But it isn’t the end. No don’t be the end.

This is a song for someone who acts older than they should.
In the meantime, I’m just sitting here feeling kinda good.
This is a song for someone who acts older than they should.

Now I’m becoming nostalgic for things I’ve never had.
I only wish that one day I could grow up and not be sad
In the meantime, I’m sitting here feeling kinda good.
