School Nights

I'm feeling childish

When you draw tattoos on my forearm

Pop bubblegum too loud

We got them preachin' that we're hell-bound

But I don't think we are unless you do

I wanna be a kid with you

Talk slow on a school night

And you can disregard my virgin ears and say what you like

You wanna win me over now?

Impress me like a school fight

And I triple-dog dare ya

To pinky-promise that you'll never lie

Ooh-ooh, ooh, oh

We light firecrackers in the middle of the street

You hear them yellin' at us, but you, listen to me

As I pour my voice in your soul

You say, "Goddamn, let's never get old," and, I agree

I wanna be a kid with you

Talk slow on a school night

And you can disregard my virgin ears and say what you like

You wanna win me over now?

Impress me like a school fight

And I triple-dog dare ya

To pinky-promise that you'll never lie

Ooh-ooh, ooh, oh

Ooh-ooh, ooh, oh

Make me a ring out of clover flowers

Sit in a teacup, spin for hours

I'm official, I know I'm official

Got a badge to your club and one has initials

You become King Kong

You're King Kong

You grow up so strong

You're so strong

But I wannna stay young

Yeah, I wanna stay young with you

Yeah, I wanna stay young

Yeah, I wanna stay young with you

Wanna stay young

I wanna stay young with you

Wanna stay young

I wanna stay young

I wanna be a kid with you

Talk slow on a school night

And you can disregard my virgin ears and say what you like

You want to win me over now?

Impress me like a school fight

And I triple-dog dare ya

To pinky-promise that you'll never lie

Ooh-ooh, ooh, oh

Ooh-ooh, ooh, oh
