[Verse 1]
Cm
When I was a kid I used to play in trees
Cm
Stung by bees, with wounds on my knees
Cm
A donut was a pleasure, only treasure was my cat
Cm
I wasn’t hard to please
Cm
When I was a kid I used to hate the boys
Cm
I tried to annoy them, I stole their toys
Cm
We poked and we joked and the game was on
Cm
But what’s going on now?
[Prechorus 1]
Cm Gm
I presume you’re twelve years old, bring the drugs to school
Cm Gm
A babyface with a cigarette, do you think that’s cool?
F
Do you think that’s cool?
[Chorus 1]
Cm
Build a camp, hide and seek
Dm
Make friends on the playground
Ebsus2
Eat pancakes every week
F7
That’s what kids should do now
Cm
Draw your favorite cartoons
Dm
It’s 4 o’clock, time for Looney Tunes
Ebsus2
You shouldn’t be drunk right now
F7
Go act like a child yeah
F7
That’s what kids should do now
[Verse 2]
Cm
We have to put our trust in this new generation
Cm
But this situation, isn’t all right
Cm
At night they go to parties with a fake ID
Cm
This is bothering me
Cm
When I was a kid my parents used to say no
Cm
I could not go, I just stayed home
Cm
Pissed off I went to bed, go to sleep they said
Cm
But what’s going on now?
[Prechorus 2]
Cm Gm
I presume you’re twelve years old, bring the drugs to school
Cm Gm
A babyface with a cigarette, do you think that’s cool?
Cm Gm
I presume you’re twelve years old, bring the drugs to school
Cm Gm
A babyface with a cigarette, do you think that’s cool?
