lyrics

Summer kids they run all wild
They strut and preen through fall and winter
And you can't dispute their style
The logic bends, distorts and splinters

Oh, I got functioning eyes, but I failed to see
That the ones who'd get ahead were them instead of me.

Oh, as a matter of fact, I invented pain
If you don't want to draw blood, don't shave against the grain.

All the kids have gone and grown
(or so they claim to folks and mirrors)
But the attributes they've shown
Have blossomed, bloomed and can't be clearer

Oh, if you're torn up inside, don't appeal to me
You're the one who lived your life by the wrong philosophy.
