Once We Were School Kids (Drunk On Youth and Friendship)

Once we were schoolkids drunk on youth and friendship

Bum-puffing cigarettes out the back, near that skip behind the school

We'd speculate about what we'd all grow up to be

I'm not even sure those dreams were ours, I think they came from the TV

Those habits we can't shake

Nothing left to salivate for

We don't need to hunt for food now

Will to something, somehow

Outgrew those silkworm dreams, we became who we would be

Shed those pupal skins to find none of us have wings

They told us we need goals to create our own meaning

Group death this is the rise of individuality

Create things to aspire to

We don't need to gather food now

Energy to spend on things

They make up in the magazines
